The changes of gastric mucosa morphology after induction of diabetes by STZ. a. H&E, × 100. b. Mucosa thickness. Data are shown as mean ± SEM, n = 10 rats per group. *p < 0.05 vs the control group. # p < 0.05 vs the 4 W diabetic group. c. H&E, × 400. Boxed areas depict regions enlarged. Stomach of diabetic rats showing that the parietal cells were irregularly scattered, enlarged and cytoplasmic vacuoles when compared to normal control. d. The number of parietal cells was counted in H&E stained sections. Data are shown as mean ± SEM, n = 10 rats per group. *p < 0.05 vs the control group. #p < 0.05 vs the 4 W diabetic group
