(a) Blocking effect of atropine on STZ rats received EA during ICT (b) Impact of HC-3 on the plasma glucose-lowering action in STZ rats subjected to ICT. EA represents 12 hours of fasting and application of EA; non-EA shows the same without application of EA. The plasma glucose levels were compared between EA and non-EA group at 30 and 60 minutes during ICT by Student’s t-test.
