Reduced beta cell number rather than size is a major contributor to beta cell loss in type 2 diabetes

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Type 2 diabetes is characterised by reduced beta cell mass (BCM). However, it remains uncertain whether the reduction in BCM in type 2 diabetes is due to a decrease in size or number of beta cells. Our aim was to examine the impact of beta cell size and number on islet morphology in...
