Effect of formononetin treatment on glycohaemoglobin and liver glycogen content.
| Groups | HbA1c (%Hb) | Hepatic glycogen (mg/gm of tissue) |
|---|---|---|
| Normal control group | 3.94 ± 0.39 | 281.8 ± 30.13 |
| Diabetic control group | 11.58 ± 1.54### | 53.3 ± 8.27### |
| Diabetic + Formononetin (10 mg/kg, orally) | 4.68 ± 0.21∗∗∗ | 181.7 ± 27.7∗∗ |
| Diabetic + Formononetin (20 mg/kg, orally) | 4.59 ± 0.46∗∗∗ | 173 ± 15.8∗∗ |
| Diabetic + Formononetin (40 mg/kg, orally) | 4.27 ± 0.25∗∗∗ | 271.1 ± 36.9∗∗∗ |
| Diabetic + glipizide (5 mg/kg, orally) | 4.56 ± 0.16∗∗∗ | 248.9 ± 30.3∗∗∗ |
Values are expressed as Mean ± SEM. ∗∗p < 0.01, ∗∗∗p < 0.001 when compared with diabetic control. ###p < 0.001 when compared to normal control (n = 6).
