Fig. 9From: Natural exosomes-like nanoparticles in mung bean sprouts possesses anti-diabetic effects via activation of PI3K/Akt/GLUT4/GSK-3β signaling pathwayMELNs increased membrane translocation of GLUT4 and protein expression levels of GS and GLUT4. (A)-(B) MELNs increased the protein expression of GLUT4 and GS in hepatocytes in vitro. **p < 0.01, *p < 0.05 compared to the GlcN (+) hepatocytes. (C) Expression of GLUT4 at the cell membrane. (D)-(E) Expression of GS and GLUT4 in vivo. **p < 0.01, *p < 0.05 compared to the HFD/STZ miceBack to article page
