Fig 1. ABAp increases after an oral glucose load in healthy subjects, but not in T2D patients.

After overnight fasting, a pre-test blood sample was taken from 7 healthy subjects and from 9 T2D patients, all of whom subsequently underwent a standard OGTT. The values of plasma ABA (A), glucose (B) and insulin (C) shown are the mean ± SD from the healthy controls (black rhombi) and from the T2D subjects (grey squares). * p<0.05 relative to time zero values.
