Spleen cell proliferation responses to algal-derived hGAD65. Individual 8-week-old NOD mice were tested for spontaneous proliferation of splenocytes to insect cell-derived hGAD65 standard, algal-derived hGAD65 or to the unrelated protein antigen ovalbumin (OVA). Error bars represent the standard deviation. ** above bars indicates a significant difference from OVA and medium alone (p < 0.05).
