In order to count β-cells in the principal islet, we used the tg(ins:hmgb1-eGFP) transgenic line that expresses eGFP in the nuclei only. This allows the visualization of individual nuclei surrounded by a negative cytoplasm. The whole principal islet is between 45–50 μM thick and we imaged 2 μM Z-sections through the islet. In this way each nuclei is captured on multiple sections. Each section was magnified and projected onto paper. By outlining each nucleus, a detailed record of the number of GFP positive nuclei could be recorded.
