Table 1

Nonfasting blood glucose levels and fasting blood glucose levels in the 4 groups of rats. Values are expressed as the . vs. the normal group. vs. 0 week in the same group. Fasting blood glucose levels decreased significantly after treatment administration in both the SHED and BMSCs groups, while nonfasting blood glucose levels only decreased at two weeks after administration in the BMSCs group and decreased markedly at two weeks, three weeks, and seven weeks after administration in the SHED group.
