title: Effect of glurenorm on immunohistochemical changes in pancreatic beta cells of rats in experimental diabetes.
abstract: Immunohistochemical localization of islets of Langerhans of streptozotocin (65 mg/kg, ip) induced diabetic + glurenorm (10 mg/kg, po) treated female albino rats revealed increase in number of beta cells and insulin immunoreactivity of beta cells. The results suggest that glurenorm can cause the stimulation of beta cells of endocrine pancreas in diabetic rats.
