Fagopyrum tataricum (Buckwheat) Improved High-Glucose-Induced Insulin Resistance in Mouse Hepatocytes and Diabetes in Fructose-Rich Diet-Induced Mice

Figure 5

Effects of EEB on PKC phosphorylation (a) and PPARγ expressions (b) of FL83B hepatocytes induced by high glucose. FL83B cells were incubated in serum-free F12K medium with glucose (33 mM; final concentration) with or without EEB, quercetin, rutin, and quercetin + rutin for 48 h. EEB: 75% ethanol extracts of buckwheat. #Significantly different ( ) from normal; *significantly different ( ) from high-glucose-treated group.
