From: Arsenic induces diabetic effects through beta-cell dysfunction and increased gluconeogenesis in mice
Effects of arsenic on lipid metabolism.
(A) Gene expressions in liver; (B) Gene expressions in adipose; (C) PPAR-r levels; (D) Na+K+-ATP activities; (E) Ca2+Mg2+-ATP activities; and (F) free fatty acid (FFA) levels. PPAR-r, Na+K+-ATP, Ca2+Mg2+-ATP and FFA were measured by ELISA assays. CK means control mice. DB means diabetic mice. Values are mean values ± standard deviation (n = 7–8). Differences of results among groups were calculated using ANOVA followed by Tukey's post hoc test. * means significant difference (p<0.05) compared to db/m control mice.
