Figure Legend Snippet: A) Pancreas sections from treated mice were stained for glucagon (green) and insulin (red) to visualize islets and assess their size. Blue: DAPI. Scale bars, 50 μm. B) Quantification of total islet size in sections from 22 islets from pancreas sections of 7 LFD beta-C3-KO mice, 33 islets from pancreas sections of 5 HFD beta-C3-KO mice, and 35 islets from pancreas sections of 6 HFD C3-flox mice. C) Fraction of total islet staining for insulin, from the same islets analysed in (B). D) Examples of staining of individual HFD islets for glucagon (green) and pro-insulin (red). E) Quantification of pro-insulin staining in islets from each group of mice. F) Quantification of pro-insulin in serum of mice at given time points, measured by pro-insulin specific ELISA. G) Transmission electron micrographs of pancreatic islet cells isolated from beta-C3-KO or C3-flox mice. Beta-C3-KO mouse beta-cells contain accumulated amounts of swollen ER or similar vesicular organelles (black arrows), while normal ER is apparent in C3-flox mouse islet cells (white arrows). See also . Increased amounts of autophagic material were also observed in beta-C3-KO cells (asterisk). H) In vitro insulin secretion from isolated islets from C3-flox or beta-C3-KO mice HFD-fed mice, at 15 or 60 min. I) Average insulin content values per islet from secretion experiment in panel (H) (average values shown for each of 6 mice: from 6 wells, 5 islets per well). J) Serum C3 levels in C3-flox or beta-C3-KO mice at the endpoint of HFD, as measured by ELISA. Statistics in E, one-way ANOVA, in F/H, two-way ANOVA, in I, Student’s T-test, and in B/C, by mixed model statistical analysis (see methods).
