GW-induced endothelial fibrosis inhibition improves mass muscle wasting and hypoglycemia in 24-h endotoxemic rats. Creatine kinase (a) for muscle mass wasting and glycemia (b) for glycemia control were measured in vehicle-treated/saline-treated rats (open bars, N = 8), vehicle-treated/endotoxemic rats (dashed bars, N = 8), GW-treated/endotoxemic rats (closed bars, N = 8), and GW-treated/saline-treated rats (dark gray bars, N = 8). GW-788388 was administrated by gavage (5 mg/kg a day) 24 h before and during 24-h endotoxemia. Values are expressed as the mean ± SD. **p < 0.01, assessed by one-way ANOVA (Kruskal–Wallis) and Dunn’s post-test. N = 8
