APS restored GLUT2 downregulated by LPS via the Akt/mTOR pathway. INS-1 cells were treated as indicated for 24 h. The levels of the indicated proteins were determined by western blot analysis. (A) Representative gel images. (B) Quantified protein ratios of p-Akt/t-Akt. (C) Quantified protein ratios of p-mTOR/t-mTOR. (D) Quantified GLUT2 protein expression. n = 3, *, #P < 0.05, **, ##P < 0.01
