Effects of Berberine on Amelioration of Hyperglycemia and Oxidative Stress in High Glucose and High Fat Diet-Induced Diabetic Hamsters In Vivo

Figure 2

Effects of BBR on the glycometabolism in hamsters. The glucose levels (a), insulin levels (b), the glucose tolerant test (ipGTT) (c), and insulin tolerant test (d) were carried out in the control hamsters after medication with MET, SIM, or BBR. MC: model control, ; MET: metformin, ; SIM: simvastatin, ; BBR (low): low dose of BBR, ; BBR (high): high dose of BBR, . Data are presented as means ± SE. MET, SIM, BBR (low) and BBR (high) Versus MC: , ; versus MET: . One-way ANOVA.
