Glycemic response as a function of dose and time after intraperitoneal injection of regular insulin in 14 hr fasted mice. In these experiments saline or increasing doses of insulin (0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 U·kg−1) were injected. Glycemia was measured (mg·dL−1) 0, 30, 60, 120, 180, 240, and 300 min after insulin injection. Bars are mean ± standard deviation of 6–8 experiments. versus 0 min; 300 min versus 60 min.
