Pancreatic histological sections from mice of the indicated age stained with anti-insulin antibodies and with Hoechst 33342 were used to determine the indicated parameters (see material and methods).

Six female mice per genotype and per age were used (one section per animal). The results are represented as mean±95% CI. There was no statistical significant difference between NOD and NOD-RIPN mice as assessed by Student t test for any of the tested parameter.
