Changes in blood glucose levels with time (a) and decreased percentages of blood glucose level (b) after ip injection of insulin. N, Normal control mice; D, diabetic control mice; D + SG, diabetic mice treated with scorpion (350 mg kg−1 per day) combined with gypsum (350 mg kg−1 per day); D + M, diabetic mice treated with metformin (250 mg kg−1 per day). Data were expressed as mean ± SD (n = 6). aa “D” versus “N”; b , “D + SG” versus “D”; c “D + M” versus “D”.
