Eleutheroside E, An Active Component of Eleutherococcus senticosus, Ameliorates Insulin Resistance in Type 2 Diabetic db/db Mice

Figure 6

The effect of ESL and EE on hepatic glucose metabolism. (a) mRNA expression of the glycolysis-related genes, glucokinase and 6-phosphofructokinase, is shown. (b) mRNA expression of gluconeogenesis-related genes, G6Pase and PEPCK, is shown. After normalization of each gene to the 18S gene, mRNA levels are expressed as the percentage of diabetic mice. Values indicate the mean ± SEM. * versus DM group. ** versus DM group.
