Morphology of pancreatic islet after treatment with STZ injection, high-fat diet, and STZ injection combined with high-fat diet in rats. a Representative images of H-E staining to show the islet by dashed lines. b Representative images of insulin immunoflurorescence staining to show the islet by dashed lines. c Representative images of amylin expression in the islet (outlined by dashed lines). d Levels of amylin expression calculated with ImageJ software in sixteen islets from four rats each group. e Representative images of TUNEL staining in the islet (outlined by dashed lines). f Numbers of TUNEL positive cells in the islet were calculated and normalized by unit area of pancreatic islet. * denotes p < 0.05 compared with the control group. n = 4. Two-way ANOVA was used with post hoc test
