TABLE 2.
Counted islets per animal | Counted nuclei per animal | Nuclei per islet | Proportion of Ki-67–positive nuclei per islet (%) | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Wild type | 68 | 6,297 ± 664.5 | 93 ± 7.6 | 1.10 ± 0.08 |
Transgenic | 60 | 5,291 ± 567.7 | 89 ± 9.7 | 1.16 ± 0.13 |
Data are means ± SE of values from four animals from each genotype. Pancreatic sections were immunostained with the anti–Ki-67 antibody followed by counterstaining with hematoxylin as shown inFig. 3I. Numbers of all nuclei and of Ki-67–positive nuclei in the islets of wild-type and transgenic mice were counted.
