Data are means ± SEM for four to seven mice per group except the 19-month-old partial pancreatectomy cohort, which consisted of only three mice. Body weight of mice before and 2 weeks after a sham operation (top left) or partial pancreatectomy (top right). Random-fed blood glucose values for 2 weeks following sham operation or partial pancreatectomy, expressed as average values (middle left) or area under the curve (middle right).
