Values are mean + SEM. (n=5 per group).
bp<0.05 significantly different from the control, abp<0.05 significantly different from the diabetic group treated with glibenclamide and amlodipine , acp<0.05 significantly
different from the potassium adapted group and cp<0.05 significantly different from the normal group treated with amlodipine and glibenclamide.
C: Control (normal saline group)
A: Normal group treated with amlodipine
G : Normal group treated with glibenclamide
AG: Normal group treated with both amlodipine and glibenclamide
K: Potassium adapted group
D: Diabetic group
DG: Diabetic group treated with glibenclamide
KAG: Potassium adapted treated with both glibenclamide and amlodipine
DGA: Non-adapted diabetic group treated with both glibenclamide and amlodipine
KDAG: potassium adapted diabetic group treated with both amlodipine and glibenclamide
