The natural course of Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus is characterized by progressive destruction of insulin producing beta-cells of the pancreas resulting from an autoimmune process. The toxic effect of some beta-cells toxins like streptozotocin (used to produce animal models of IDDM) has been associated with the oxidative stress due to enhanced DNA repair and NAD depletion in damaged beta-cells. This activity of streptozotocin has been prevented with the use of nicotinamide.
