From: Curcumin improves insulin sensitivity in high-fat diet-fed mice through gut microbiota
Effects of curcumin-restructured fecal microbiota on glucose and lipid metabolism in endogenous gut microbiota-depleted mice. A Serum glucose levels in 6-h-fasted endogenous gut microbiota-depleted mice colonized with the microbiota harvested from curcumin- and vehicle-treated HFD-fed mice during HFD feeding (n = 8/group). B–G Blood glucose concentrations during an intraperitoneal GTT (B), ITT (D) and PTT (F) performed in mice as in A. Area under the curve (AUC) of GTT (C), ITT (E) and PTT (G) (n = 8/group). H Hepatic TGs levels of mice as in A (n = 8/group). Numerical data are shown as the mean ± SEM. *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001
