(a) Pancreatic section of the control group showed normal histological features of beta cells and islets of Langerhans. (b) Pancreatic section of the diabetic/positive control group showed degenerative and necrotic changes in the islet of the Langerhans cells, congestion, and loss of cellular content. There was atrophy and regression in the size of all of the islets of the Langerhans cells. (c, d) The responses of the treated groups (250 and 500 mg/kg CPP extract) showed active beta cells and increased dense volume of the islet cell which is a sign of regeneration.
