Figure 2Diabetic mice exhibited severe insulitis and loss of immunoreactive insulin in β cells. Thirteen weeks after LCMV or saline injection, the pancreata of nondiabetic (
A and
B) and diabetic (
C and
D) mice were dissected, embedded, cross-sectioned, and stained with H&E (
A and
C). Immunoreactive insulin was detected by using a mouse monoclonal anti–insulin antibody in adjacent sections. This procedure results in a brown reaction product (
B and
D). The procedure was performed on 3–4 mice per group with similar results.
