Atorvastatin helps preserving β-cell area in obese C57 mice. (A) H&E staining of pancreatic islets. (B) Fluorescent staining of insulin-expressing β-cells (FITC; 20×) in non-obese, obese mice with and without atorvastatin treatmen. (C) Quantification of area of insulin-expressing β-cells. Results are means ± S.E.M. (n = 3). *P < 0.05 vs. control.
