Alteration of 11𝜷-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase Type 1 and Glucocorticoid Receptor by Ethanol in Rat Liver and Mouse Hepatoma Cells

Figure 1

Glucose and insulin tolerance after 3 months of ethanol intake (8 g·kg⁻¹·d⁻¹). Plasma glucose concentrations during intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test (IPGTT), the area under the IPGTT glucose curve, and the glucose concentrations during insulin tolerance test (ITT) are shown as the mean ± S.E.M (𝑛=20). *𝑃<0.05, **𝑃<0.01 ethanol versus control.
