Hemoglobin and glycated hemoglobin of the control and experimental rats.
Groups | Control | TE control | Hyperglycemic | HG + TE (400 mg/kg b.w) | HG + GB (600 μg/kg b.w) |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Hemoglobin | 15 ± 2a | 15 ± 2a | 10 ± 1b | 12 ± 1c | 12 ± 1c |
Glycated hemoglobin | 0.7 ± 0.2a | 0.6 ± 0.2a | 2 ± 0.3b | 1 ±−0.3c | 1 ± 0.3c |
TE, truffle extract; HG, hyperglycemic; and GB, glibenclamide. Values are given as means ± SD for six rats in each group. aIndicates group (group 2) with no significance difference as compared to control group. bSignificantly different from control group at p < 0.05. cSignificantly different from the hyperglycemic group at p < 0.05. Duncan’s Multiple Range Test (DMRT).
