After publication of the above-cited article, it was brought to the attention of the Editors that Figure 1A contained repeated structures in the upper right corner, which could give the impression of digital alteration.

Upon inquiry, the authors promptly provided the original, unprocessed version of Figure 1A, which includes a scale bar located in the upper right corner. The image is intended solely to illustrate mouse pancreatic islets after digestion. The prior removal of the scale bar does not affect the scientific content, interpretation, or conclusions of the article. In order to ensure full transparency and to avoid any potential ambiguity, the unprocessed version of Figure 1A is reproduced below.
