Fig. 3From: Accumulation of intestinal tissue 3-deoxyglucosone attenuated GLP-1 secretion and its insulinotropic effect in ratsReduced expressions of TAS1R2, TAS1R3 and TRPM5 in both duodenum and colon of rats 2 weeks after intragastric administration of 3DG n = 6 for each group. After 2 weeks of intragastric administration of 50 mg/kg 3DG, the duodenum and colon tissues were freshly isolated from rats.
