Baicalein Protects against Type 2 Diabetes via Promoting Islet β-Cell Function in Obese Diabetic Mice
Figure 3
Dietary baicalein intake enhanced glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in obese mice. Fasting plasma insulin concentrations (a) were determined by ELISA after mice were fasted for 12 h. Plasma insulin concentrations at baseline and 30 min postglucose loading via ip injection (1 g/kg BW). Data are means ± SEM ( mice/group). versus SD group; versus HF group. SD: standard diet, HF: high-fat diet, and HF + B: HF + 0.5 g baicalein/kg diet.
