Intragastric administration of 3DG for 2 weeks caused normal rats to develop increased fasting blood glucose concentration and impaired oral glucose tolerance. for each group. (a) Fasting plasma glucose levels were measured in rats after 2 weeks of 3DG (50 mg/kg) or vehicle treatment. (b) OGTT (2.5 g/kg) was performed after 2-week administration of 3DG (50 mg/kg) or vehicle in rats. (c) The glycaemic response was expressed as the area under the curve. Values are the . , , and compared with the control group.
