abstract：:Streptozotocin (STZ) is widely used to induce diabetic rodent models. It is specifically toxic to pancreatic beta cells and causes severe destruction and dysfunction. We investigated the effect of 1-palmitoyl-2-linoleoyl-3-acetyl-rac-glycerol (PLAG) on an STZ-induced diabetic mouse model. PLAG attenuated the glucose i...
