Cells with An Activating STAT3 Mutation Differentiate into Insulin-Producing Cells in the Pancreas

Caption

In the photo on the left, the cells are in middle of the differentiation process (red is insulin, green glucagon, blue DNA). In the photo on the right, the cells have nearly completed their differentiation and are grouped together in clumps of cells similar to pancreatic islets (red is insulin, green chromogranin and blue DNA).
