Figure 2

Intra-peritoneal glucose tolerance tests (ipGTT) in 60-week old liver-specific gck knockout mice. ipGTT (A) and areas under the curve of the ipGTT (AUC) (B) are shown. Glucose levels were measured at 0, 30, 60, 120 minutes after glucose injection in wild-type (gckw/w) and gck knockout (gckw/–) mice as well as knockout mice treated with insulin or rosiglitazone for 4 weeks. n = 6 for all samples. Asterisk (*) refers to statistical significance (P < 0.05) in comparisons with gckw/– mice, while # refers to comparisons with gckw/w mice.
