A AP and SAP were induced in wild type (WT) and ANGPTL4 -/- mice (n = 15, each group), as described in the material and methods. H&E staining, TUNEL staining for apoptosis, and immunofluorescence staining for ANGPTL4 (red) and amylase (green) were performed in the pancreatic tissues. ANGPTL4 and IL-6 protein expressions were also determined in pancreatic tissues from ANGPTL4 WT and -/- mice by Western blotting. Scale bar represents 100 µm.
