Figure 3.

Effects of 9a during an OGTT in female Wistar fatty rats. Panels A and C show time-dependent changes of plasma glucose (PG) and plasma insulin after oral administration of 9a followed by 1 g/kg oral glucose challenge, respectively. Data in panels B and D represent incremental AUC_{0−120 min} of PG levels and incremental AUC_{pre−30 min} of plasma insulin levels shown in panels A and C, respectively. Values are means ± SDs (n = 6). ^#p ≤ 0.025 as compared with control by one-tailed Williams' test.
