Clinical history of diabetes: 1, < 5 years; 2, 6–10 years; 3, 11–15 years; 4, > 15 years. β:Insulin, σ:Glucagon, δ:SRIF cells, (n): numbers of islets examined, % in β-, σ- and δ-cells were calculated the hormone-positive cells by the total islet cell numbers. % IAPP/β-cells was clculated dividing IAPP-positive cells by β-cell numbers.
