From: Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein (CETP) expression does not affect glucose homeostasis and insulin secretion: studies in human CETP transgenic mice

Fig. 3

CETP expression has no effect on tissue glucose uptake. Perigonadal, perirenal, subcutanous and brown (BAT) adipose tissue, liver and muscle glucose uptake was measured in vivo, 15 min and 2 h after an intraperitoneal injection of glucose (2 g/Kg BW) and 3H-2-deoxiglucose (150 μCi/Kg BW) in 5 month old NTg and CETP female mice (a). Blood was collected 3H activity was determined in plasma (b) and glucose (c) in blood. Mean ± SE (n = 3–6 per group). Student’s t test: non-significant
