Muscle protein metabolism in neonatal alloxan-administered rats: effects of continuous and intermittent swimming training

Table 2 Fasting (12 hs) and non fasting (after glucose overload) serum glucose and insulin levels at 120 days.

120 days	SA	SC	CC	CA	IC	IA
Fasting serum glucose (mg/dL)	79.38 ± 6.62	78.93 ± 3.54	75.83 ± 4.28	77.61 ± 4.28	78.00 ± 7.05	77.74 ± 5.96
Non fasting serum glucose (mg/dL)	132.03 ± 16.38	115.74 ± 5.16	118.77 ± 8.07	124.42 ± 13.17	105.42 ± 5.41	125.44 ± 18.80^f
Fasting insulin level (ng/mL)	0.84 ± 0.61	1.90 ± 1.04	2.10 ± 1.59	0.72 ± 0.44	1.28 ± 1.00	1.53 ± 0.94
Non fasting insulin level (ng/mL)	3.72 ± 2.71	2.74 ± 1.98	2.29 ± 1.66	1.97 ± 1.40	3.96 ± 2.55	3.71 ± 1.85

Results are expressed as means ± standard deviation of 10 animals per group. SA: Sedentary alloxan, SC: Sedentary control, CC: Continuous training control, CA: Continuous training alloxan, IC: Intermittent training control and IA: Intermittent training alloxan. Letter indicate a statistically significant difference among groups (Two- way ANOVA (3 × 2) and Bonferroni post hoc test, p < 0.05) referring to non-fasting serum glucose. f, statistically significant difference for IA vs. IC.
