Figure 4From: Effects of high levels of glucose on the steroidogenesis and the expression of adiponectin receptors in rat ovarian cellsPlasma glucose (A), insulin (B), progesterone (C) and oestradiol (D) concentrations in the control (n = 6) and STZ-treated rats (n = 12). Plasma glucose was assayed by the glucose oxidase method. Plasma insulin concentrations were determined by ELISA and plasma progesterone and oestradiol were assayed by RIA. C: control; STZ: streptozotocin. *p < 0.05, ***p < 0.001Back to article page
