Effects of TRPV1 receptor antagonist and capsaicin on protein (A,B) and mRNA (C) expression levels of key genes for glycometabolism in pancreas of STZ-induced diabetic rats. All data are expressed as means ± SD, n = 8. ^*Means are significant difference compared with the control group (P < 0.05). Means with different superscript letters are significantly different among the diabetes groups (P < 0.05). TRPV1, transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 1; PDX-1, pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1; IRS1, insulin receptor substrate 1; IRS2, insulin receptor substrate 2; GLUT2, glucose transporter 2.
