Deterioration of the glucose intolerance associated with insulin resistance induced by fat feeding in RIP-kdAkt mice. (A) Intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test in 12-week-old RIP-kdAkt and WT mice after 12 hours of fasting (n = 7). (B) Islet area after 14 weeks of fat feeding in RIP-kdAkt and WT mice (n = 6). (C) Islet size distribution obtained from mice used for β cell mass measurements. Data are presented as mean ± SE. *P ≤ 0.05.
