Whereas the density of pancreatic stellate cells (PSCs) was not different in tissues isolated from control and FAEE-AP (72 h) mice ( n = 14 and n = 31, P > 0.54), the density of PMs increased significantly in FAAE-AP mice after 48 h ( P < 0.033) and was highly significant after 72 h ( P < 0.0001; Figure 2E, F ).
