Islet Stellate Cells Isolated from Fibrotic Islet of Goto-Kakizaki Rats Affect Biological Behavior of Beta-Cell

Figure 1

(a) Some stellate shape-like cells began to grow out of four-month-old GK rat islets after 48 h of culture. (b) These cells exponentially proliferated and migrated out from the islets after 72 h, at 100x magnification ().
