Mice were fasted overnight (~16 hours), followed by an IP injection of 2 mg D-glucose per gram mouse weight. Tail vein blood samples were collected at 0, 15, 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after the injection and glucose concentration was determined using the Accu-Chek Compact Plus Blood Glucose Meter (Roche).

To perform the gluclose tolerance test (GTT) or insulin tolerance test (ITT), mice were fasted overnight before receiving an i.p. injection of 20% glucose (2 g/kg body weight) or recombinant insulin (Humulin R, 0.75 U/kg; Lily), respectively. Blood samples were collected from the tail 0, 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 hours later, after injection for analysis using the Accu-Chek Compact Plus blood glucose meter (Roche Diagnostics).

For the purpose of acclimatization and reaching optimal weight (at least 250 gr), all of the rats were kept in an animal lab for two weeks prior to the experiments. Subsequently, following an overnight fast, diabetes was induced through a single intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ) (45 mg/kg; Sigma, St. Louis, MO) solution (dissolved in 0.5 mol/L citrate buffer at pH 4.0). Two days later, diabetes was confirmed through measuring tail vein blood glucose level (>300 mg/dL) by Accu-Chek Compact Plus blood glucose meter (Roche Diagnostics K.K., Tokyo, Japan). In this regard, blood glucose levels were controlled throughout the study, once every week (Fig. 1 ).![]()

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
