Figure 4

Effect of myriocin treatment (for 7 days) and streptozotocin-induced diabetes (for 7 days) on neutral ceramidase (a) and alkaline ceramidase (b) activities in liver homogenates. C: control group. M: group treated with myriocin. D: streptozotocin-induced diabetes group. D + M: streptozotocin-induced group treated with myriocin. Results are based on 8 independent preparations for each experimental treatment (means ± SE). * compared with C group. compared with D group.
