Low-Frequency Electroacupuncture Improves Insulin Sensitivity in Obese Diabetic Mice through Activation of SIRT1/PGC-1 in Skeletal Muscle
Figure 2
Effect of electroacupuncture on SIRT1 protein expression in skeletal muscle of nondiabetic db/m and diabetic db/db mice. Electroacupuncture increased SIRT1 protein expression in both groups. Total protein obtained from quadriceps muscles of the mice was subjected to western blotting for SIRT1. α/β-tubulin was used as a reference protein. Data are shown as the mean ± SE of four mice in each group. versus db/m and db/db.
