Effect of CNX-010-49 on fasting glucose in DIO mice of HFD. Fasting Glucose levels (A) were monitored weekly. To measure the gluconeogenic state of liver, pyruvate tolerance test (B) was performed as described in the Methods. At the end of the treatment period, serum glycerol (C) and free fatty acids (D) were measured as described in the Methods. Data in all panels are mean ± SEM (n = 8 mice/group). Statistical comparison was conducted by One-way ANOVA followed by Dunnett’s test or repeated measures ANOVA followed by Bonferroni correction (A & B) (n = 8 mice/group). Two-way repeated measures ANOVA indicated that CNX-010-49 significantly reduced the fasting glucose (p = 0.01; F = 5.08; Df = 22) (# - significance of HFD control against lean control, *- significance of CNX-010-49 treatment against HFD control) (*P < 0.05, **P < 0.01 and ***P < 0.001).
