Figure 1. Body weight, blood glucose, and insulin levels.

Figure 1.

(A) STZ-induced diabetes significantly slowed weight gain in rats. After 8 weeks of hyperglycemia, the body weight of diabetic rats was significantly less (****p<0.0001, n=8) compared to that of their non-diabetic counterparts. (B) Blood glucose was significantly higher (****p<0.0001, n=8) in diabetic rats compared to controls, while plasma insulin levels were significantly decreased (*p<0.05, n=4) in diabetic rats (C). The medians of body weights and glucose measurements are indicated. Insulin values are represented as mean ± SEM. ns = non-significant.
