Cover: Islets of Langerhans in the pancreas of a 3-mo-old wild-type mouse (C57BL/6J × CBA F₁ genetic background). A 4-μm-thick section of the pancreas fixed in Bouin's fluid and embedded in paraffin was stained with hematoxylin-eosin. The image was obtained with an Axioplan microscope (×20 objective) coupled to an Axiocam HRc digital camera. From Pascal SM, Guiot Y, Pelengaris S, Khan M, Jonas J.
