Blood glucose was determined at 0, 15, 30, 60, and 120£¿min post-glucose load shows significantly faster glucose clearance in E4orf1-expressing mice. b Body weight did not differ significantly between the two groups. The hyperinsulinemic¨Ceuglycemic clamp studies performed on these mice do not show any difference in c fasting blood glucose (mg/dL), d glucose infusion rate, or e plasma insulin (ng/mL). The groups were compared using t-test, *p£¿¡Ü£¿0.0 %K Endocrinology %K Type 2 diabetes %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6534626/
