Among beta-cell autoantigens, GAD65 is an important initial target of the immune response that results in beta-cell destruction and diabetes, in both humans and NOD mice [ 6 7 8 9 ] . While both humoral and cellular responses to GAD65 occur as early as 4 weeks of age in NOD mice [ 8 ] , there is considerable evidence that beta-cell-specific T H 1 cells are the effectors of T1DM, whereas T H 2 cells appear to have a protective role [ 10 ] . Accordingly, a shift of the autoimmune response from T H 1 to T H 2 predominance has represented a promising strategy for prevention of diabetes and other T H 1-mediated autoimmune diseases.
Primarily examined through the use of G-banding cytogenetic techniques, the human and common chimpanzee karyotypes differ by only 10 euchromatic rearrangements: a telomere fusion between PTR chromosomes 12 and 13, resulting in HSA chromosome 2, and 9 pericentric inversions (HSA 1, 4, 5, 9, 12, 15, 16, 17, 18) [ 1 2 ] . The predominance of pericentric inversions between chimps and humans highlights their potential importance in the divergence of human from non-human primate species, and provides an opportunity to investigate the mechanism facilitating these rearrangements.
Unfortunately, recent work indicates that the application of strategies to shift autoimmune responses from T H 1 to T H 2 predominance is not without risk.
