SB treatment was associated with significant improvements in islet histology in DM model mice. Following 8-week treatment with SB, islet histology was assessed in DM model mice and control animals. Islet area was significantly reduced in DM model animals relative to controls, whereas SB treatment was associated with significant increases in islet area relative to DM model mice. n = 6/group; vs. control and ^## vs. DM group.
