The immunohistochemical observation of somatostatin-like and avian pancreatic polypeptide-like immunoreactivity in certain cellular elements of diabetic lipodystrophic skin.
Somatostatin-like and avian pancreatic polypeptide-like immunoreactivities were found to occur within certain cellular elements of the dermis of a patient having diabetic lipodystrophic skin lesions. No specific immunofluorescence could be seen in the epidermis.
