At the end of the follow-up period, mice were sacrificed, pancreata were
harvested, fixed, and embedded in paraffin 6 h post-injection with BrdU (100
mg/kg/bw). Sections were stained using antibodies to BrdU (Dako, M0744, 1:100),
Ki67 (Dako, M7240, 1:100), phosphohistone H3 (Millipore, 06–570, 1:250),
or insulin (Abcam, ab7842, 1:500), glucagon (Sigma, G2654, 1:8000), somatostatin
(Abcam, ab30788, 1:1000), β2M (Abcam, ab87483, 1:80), serum anti-ZnT8
(c-term), 1:500, serum anti-phogrin (C-term), 1:250 (gift from H. Davidson, Univ
Colorado) and appropriate secondary antibodies and counterstained with DAPI
(Sigma, D9564, 1:6600). Cell death was detected by TUNEL assay (ApopTag S7100;
Chemicon). At least 1,000–2,000 β-cell nuclei were counted per
animal, and data were expressed as a percentage of BrdU+, Ki67+, pHH3+ or TUNEL+
β-cells. Insulitis was evaluated as reported previously38 (link). β-cell mass was
evaluated by point-counting morphometry on immunofluorescence-stained sections
of the pancreas5 (link).

Apoptosis Quantification Protocol

A TUNEL assay was performed for all groups according to the manufacturer’s protocol (ApopTag S7100; Chemicon International, Billerica, MA). Counting apoptotic cells in 10 arbitrarily selected fields at ×400 magnification under optical microscope (Olympus, Japan). The apoptotic rate (per ×400 microscopic fields) was calculated as number of apoptotic cells ×100/total number of cells.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
