Intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test (IPGTT) (A) (n = 18–20), blood glucose area under the curve (AUC) for IPGTT (B) (n = 18–20), blood HbA1c concentration (C) (n = 7), lipid profile (D) (n = 7). TC (total cholesterol), LDL (low-density lipoprotein), HDL (high-density lipoprotein), and TG (triglycerides). MNA-treated db/db mice were supplemented with MNA in drinking water for 4 weeks at a dose of 100 mg·kg-1. The effects of MNA on blood HbA1c concentration and lipid profile were evaluated in sedentary db/db mice. Data are presented as the mean ±SEM. Statistical analysis was performed using the Mann-Whitney test or unpaired t-test depending on the results of the normality test. ***P<0.001 vs. control db/db mice at 8 weeks of age, ##P<0.01 vs. control db/db mice at 12 weeks of age.
