Figure 3. Inhibitory effect of immature Hosui pear fruit polyphenols on blood glucose levels in vivo. (A) Blood glucose levels after oral starch tolerance test in mice to monitor the inhibitory effect of polyphenols from immature Hosui pear fruits. Circles, 0 mg/kg mouse; squares, 250 mg/kg mouse; triangles, 500 mg/kg mouse. Data represent the mean ± standard error of 5 mice in each group. **p < 0.05 vs. starch (control). (B) AUC values of data shown in panel A. Values represent mean ± S.E.M. Different superscript letters indicate significant differences (p < 0.05)
