Figure 3. Glucose tolerance and plasma insulin.

Glucose tolerance was measured by quantifying plasma glucose after an intraperitoneal injection of 1g glucose/kg BW in chow-fed and HFD-fed animals (A). Fasting plasma insulin was measured by ELISA prior to glucose injection (B). n = 6 for each group; *, p<0.05 vs. WT, ^#, p<0.05 vs. chow-fed mice.
