Metabolic parameters of a/a and A^vy/a mice after 4 weeks administration of rosiglitazone. A. Non-fasted levels of blood glucose. B. Serum levels of insulin. (In A and B: gray bars – untreated, control mice “C”; black bars – rosiglitazone treated mice “R”). C. Insulin sensitivity measured in intraperitoneal insulin tolerance test (IPITT) (black circles – a/a untreated; black squares – a/a rosiglitazone treated; white circles - A^vy/a untreated; white squares - A^vy/a rosiglitazone treated). D. Body weight. (light gray bars – at the start of experiment; dark gray bars – 4 weeks later, at the end of experiment). ** p < 0.01
