MIP and infection: In contrast, Avy/MIP-TF mice that were infected with MHV68-EGFP developed a range of peri-insulitis to mild intra-insulitis in islets throughout the pancreas (Fig. 3C) leading to an average insulitis score of 0.52 (Fig. 3A, p < 0.05 vs. wildtype MHV68 infection, p < 0.01 vs MHV68-EGFP-infected MIP-TF mice).
