Figure 5: Expression of genes in glucose metabolism and insulin resistance. (A) Expression of genes in glucose metabolism. (B) Expression of pro-inflammatory genes. The mRNA levels were quantified by qPCR as described in the methods. All of the data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA for repeated measures with Tukey’s Studentized range test between the groups. A common letter indicates a significant difference (P<0.05). ChREBP, carbohydrate-responsive element-binding protein; TNF-α, tumor necrosis factor α; IL-6, interleukin-6; PEPCK, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase; G6Pase, glucose 6-phosphatase.
