Figure 5. Protective effects of mushroom, chrysin, curcumin and omega-3 on mRNA expression of FPEPCK, and GLUT-2 expression in liver tissue of Wistar rats using semi-quantitative RT-PCR analysis. RNA was extracted and reverse transcribed (1μg) and RT-PCR analysis was carried out for FPEPCK (A), and GLUT-2 (B) expression as described in materials and methods. Densitometric analysis was carried for 3 different experiments. Data are means ± SEM for 3 independent experiments. Values are statistically significant at *p<0.05Vs. control, #p < 0.05 Vs. Triton and $p<0.05 Vs. simvastin
