Assessment of the effect of liraglutide in the induction of bihormonal insulin+ glucagon+ cells. Triple immunofluorescence staining of 5-μm cryostat pancreatic sections for α-cells (glucagon, green) and β-cells (insulin, red) in immunodeficient NOD.SCID-IL2Rγ−/− mice rendered diabetic by streptozotocin and treated with phosphate-buffered saline (T1D), or with liraglutide for 48 h (Lira 48 h), for 7–15 days (Lira) and after withdrawal of liraglutide at day 30 (post-Lira). Normoglycemic mice were included as control (sham). The white arrows in Lira 48 h staining depict bihormonal cells. The nuclei in all pictures were stained with Hoechst (blue). The scale bar indicates 5 μm.
