Fig. 4From: Chemical profile and in vivo hypoglycemic effects of Syzygium jambos, Costus speciosus and Tapeinochilos ananassae plant extracts used as diabetes adjuvants in Puerto RicoIP-GTT and IP-ITT in the C57BL/J (ob/ob) mouse model. A-C. IP-GTT performed at 5 wks (a) and 10 wks (b, c) post-treatment with 2.2 mg/kg of S. jambos, T. ananassae, C. speciosus aqueous extracts or water (control). Horizontal dashed line is set at 200 mg/dL. Mean values of blood glucose levels before (Pre inj.) and after 15, 30, 60, 90 and 120 min of an IP 10 % glucose solution (a, b) or insulin (8U/g BW) (c) injection. Values are means ± SEM, n (Control, C. speciosus, T. ananassae) = 11/group, n (S. jambos) =12/groupBack to article page
