Deleting one Bdnf allele prevents the early loss of islet sympathetic nerves induced by viral injection in RIP-GP mice. In Bdnf wild-type mice (Bdnf+/+) there is a marked loss of islet sympathetic nerves 7 days after LCMV injection that does not occur in Bdnf+/− mice. NPY, Neuropeptide tyrosine. *p<0.05 vs vehicle (Veh)-treated control
