Glucose tolerance test in mice with type 2 diabetes induced by a high-fat diet and infused with Ex9 for 4 weeks into the peritoneal cavity. (A) Plasma glucose (mM) during an i.p. glucose tolerance test in C57BL/6 mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD) and infused with Ex9 or saline (Sal) through an osmotic pump for 4 weeks and in mice fed normal chow (NC). (B) Index of area under curve (AUC), expressed in AU, in the 3 tested conditions. The mean of 9 mice per group is shown. *P < 0.05 versus saline-infused HFD mice.
