ZDF rat diabetic phenotype. Blood glucose levels (mg/dL) (A,B) and body weight (g) (C,D) for ZDF rats receiving vehicle alone (Vehicle), or diabetic ZDF- or non-diabetic ZL-mitochondria at 2 h (A,C) and at 28 days recovery (B,D). No significant differences in blood glucose, body weight or heart weight was observed within or between groups at 2 h or at 28 days recovery. Blood glucose and body weight were significantly increased at 28 days as compared to 2 h recovery. These data suggest that the observed effects of Vehicle, diabetic ZDL-and non-diabetic ZL-mitochondria transplantation are glucose independent.
