Effect of CoQ10 on blood glucose levels and serum levels of resistin, TNF-α, and omentin.

After three weeks, blood glucose levels and serum levels of TNF-α, resistin, omentin, and LPPLA2 were measured in three groups of experimental rats; the Normal control group (A), the Diabetic control group (B), and the Diabetic group treated with CoQ10 (C). Glucose levels were measured by Bayer Contour^® TS Blood Glucose Monitoring System. Serum levels of omentin, resistin, and TNF-α were evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Data are presented as the mean ± SE (n = 7). Within the same duration of treatment, bars with different asterisks (*, **) differ from each other significantly (P < 0.05). Non-asterisk bars do not differ significantly from one another (P > 0.05) within the same duration of treatment.
