Protocol for quantifying SA-β-gal activity as a measure of senescence in islets of a mouse model of type 1 diabetes

Summary: A subpopulation of pancreatic beta cells becomes senescent during type 1 diabetes (T1D) progression, and removal of these populations protects against T1D in mice. Here, we present a protocol to measure senescence in murine pancreatic islet cells through analysis of senescence-associated β-...
