Body weights and fasting glucose concentrations in rats before oral, ip, and iv tolerance tests

	Body Weight, g	Fasting Glucose, mmol/l
MTT cohort
MF	323.6 ± 3.1*	8.1 ± 0.15*
AL	410.5 ± 5.3	7.0 ± 0.22
IPGTT cohort
MF	350.8 ± 7.6*	7.5 ± 0.4*
AL	371.5 ± 13.6	6.0 ± 0.1
IVGTT cohort
MF	302.0 ± 6.0*	5.6 ± 0.18
AL	315.6 ± 3.8	5.4 ± 0.11

Values are means ± SE. MTT, meal tolerance test; IPGTT, intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test; IVGTT, intravenous glucose tolerance test; MF, meal fed; AL, ad libitum fed. For the IV cohort, the values are from the same animals before (AL) and after MF.

^*P < 0.05 vs. AL control.
