Photomicrographs of pancreas sections of normal wounded control. (A), normal wounded rats treated with WP for 8 days (B), diabetic wounded control (C) and diabetic wounded rats treated with WP for 8 days (D). The increase in insulin levels as a result of WP administration is associated with a marked multiplication of β-cells in the core of islets of Langerhans. IL: islets of Langerhans; a: alpha cells; b: beta cells; d: delta cells; hdv: highly divided beta cells; S: septae separating pancreatic lobules; hc: hydropic cells; n: necrosis; pk: pyknotic nuclei (Modified aldehyde fuchsin method; 400x).
