Immunofluorescence images for NKX6.1 in the pancreas. (a) Immunofluorescence images showing glucagon (blue), insulin (green), and NKX6.1 (red) coexpression. (b) The data show the ratio of NKX6.1⁺insulin⁺ cells to insulin⁺ cells as the mean± SEM. n= 4-8 mice in each group. represented p < 0.01 versus control group, ^# represented p < 0.05 intervention versus model group. All immunofluorescence images were taken with a fluorescence microscope (×400).
