References Experimental design Main results concerning glycaemic control Main results concerning microbiota
Sung et al. (30) Animals: non-germ free C57Bl/6J mice
Age and sex: 8-week-old; male
Diets: high-fat high-sucrose diet (45% of energy from fat and 17% from sucrose)
Faecal transplantation: from mice fed a standard diet or from mice fed the high-fat high-sucrose diet supplemented with 0.4% of resveratrol
Experimental period length: 8 weeks (last 2 weeks of transplantation)
Transplantation from mice fed resveratrol:
Improvement in glucose clearance
Parabacteroides
Proteobacteria
Moryella
Akkermansia
Kim et al. (37) Animals: C57Bl/6J mice
Age and sex: 8-week-old; male
Diets: high-fat high-sucrose diet (45% of energy from fat and 17% from sucrose)
Faecal transplantation: from mice fed a standard diet or from mice fed the high-fat high-sucrose diet supplemented with 0.4% of resveratrol
Experimental period length: 8 weeks (last 2 weeks of transplantation)
Transplantation from mice fed resveratrol:

No effect on insulin levels.
Not analysed
Wang et al. (31) Animals: C57BL/6J mice
Age and sex: 6-week-old; male
Diets: high-fat diet (60% of energy from fat)
Faecal transplantation: from mice fed a standard diet supplemented or not with resveratrol or a high-fat high-sucrose diet supplemented with resveratrol (300 mg/kg BW/d)
Experimental period length: 18 weeks (last 16 weeks of transplantation)
Transplantation from mice fed resveratrol and the high-fat diet:
↓ Fasting blood insulin
No effect on fasting glucose levels
Transplantation from mice fed resveratrol and standard diet:
↓ Fasting blood glucose
↓ Fasting blood glucose insulin Improved glucose and insulin response
