Intraperitoneal glucose tolerance tests. Five-month-old mice were fasted 6 hours, then injected with glucose (2 mg/g body weight). Blood samples from the tail vein were obtained at the indicated times. Plasma glucose (a) (RIP-Akt, n = 4, and WT, n = 5) and insulin (b) (RIP-Akt, n = 3, and WT, n = 3). Results are presented as mean ± SEM. *P < 0.01.
