Induction of diabetes and measurement of pancreas function following high-fat feeding and streptozotocin injection and quercetin attenuates symptoms of T2DM in mice. (A). serum glucose concentration was measured by standard commercial assays kits. (mmol/L) (n = 10); (B). Insulin levels were determined by mouse-specific ELISA kits (n = 10); (μg/L); (C). The homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) = fasting insulin × fasting blood glucose/22.5 (n = 10); (D). The homeostasis model assessment of β cell function (HOMA-β) = 20 × fasting insulin/(fasting blood glucose − 3.5 mmol/L) (n = 10). Data were expressed as mean ± SD (a: p < 0.05 vs. C; aa: p < 0.01 vs. C; aaa: p < 0.001 vs. C; b: p < 0.05 vs. DM; bb: p < 0.01 vs. DM). T2DM, type 2 diabetes; DM, Diabetes mellitus; C, control group; Q, quercetin group.
