Table 2. Quantification of CD3 and F4/80 staining in pancreatic sections of F3 adult male offspring.

Data are normalized to total analysis area and presented as mean (SEM). P values are from Dunnett’s-test performed on log-transformed data, where required (F4/80 islets, F4/80 lymph nodes, F4/80 excluding islets and lymph nodes). One animal per litter; N= 6 litters per group.
