Carvacrol improved glucose tolerance in STZ-induced diabetic mice. a Time course of establishment of a T1DM mouse model and carvacrol treatment. STZ was used to establish a T1DM mouse model. After 4 weeks, STZ-induced T1DM mice were treated with two doses of carvacrol (10 mg/kg/day and 20 mg/kg/day) for 4 weeks and 6 weeks. “GT” indicates the glucose level test. b and c Glucose tolerance test (2 g/kg glucose i.p.) was done in control mice or STZ-induced T1DM mice after 6 weeks of carvacrol treatment or vehicle treatment. b The glucose tolerance curve is presented. c The mean incremental area under the glucose curve (AUC) was compared between groups. ** versus Con group, ## versus T1DM group, p < 0.01, n = 10
