Figure 1

Basic parameters of rats in different experimental groups. (a) HR in the three groups. Serum levels of GLU (b), insulin (c), TC (e), TG (f), LDL-C (g), LDH (h), and FFA (i) in the three groups. (d) Assessment of insulin resistance in the three groups. (j) Mean plasma glucose concentration in response to an oral glucose challenge. Data are expressed as . , , , . For (j): , , high STZ treated group compared with control; ^#, ^##, ^###, low STZ group compared with control; ^††, low STZ compare with high STZ treated group. Con: control group; Low: low STZ group; High: high STZ group; HR: heart rate; GLU: glucose; TC: total cholesterol; TG: triglyceride; LDL-C: low-density lipoprotein cholesterol; LDH: lactate dehydrogenase; FFA: free fatty acid. per group.
