Coxsackievirus infection in mice.
White mice of the NYA: NYLAR strain were infected with coxsackie B1 or B4 virus and studied for persistence of virus, antibody conversion, histologic changes, and glucose tolerance during periods up to 13 months. Pancreatitis was observed during the acute phase of infection. Suggestions of subclinical diabetes were found during the first six months after virus inoculation. A normal glucose tolerance at 10 to 13 months suggestes that the functional lesion is temporary.
