Lingonberry (Vaccinium vitis-idaea L.) Exhibits Antidiabetic Activities in a Mouse Model of Diet-Induced Obesity
Figure 4
V. vitis-idaea increases GLUT4 protein content in soleus muscle of DIO mice. Samples of soleus muscles were obtained from CHOW, DIO control, and DIO mice fed with V. vitis-idaea (125, 250, and 500 mg/Kg) and analysed by immunoblotting with antibodies specific to GLUT4. (a) Representative blots for each group are shown. (b) Data are expressed as GLUT4/β-actinand are presented as mean ± SEM from 12 animals per experimental group. † indicates a value < 0.05 which is significantly different from DIO control group.
