Glucose and insulin homeostasis in CYP17A1-/- mice. A postprandial blood glucose (PBG) levels of wild-type (n=10) and CYP17A1-/- mice (n=22). B fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels of wild-type (n=35) and CYP17A1-/- mice (n=75). Data are expressed as median with standard deviation. Nonparametric test. *P<0.05, **P<0.01, ***P<0.001, ****P<0.0001; C FBG levels of CYP17A1-/- mice at different months. One-way ANOVA. ns. indicates no significance. Glucose tolerance tests were performed in 6-mo-old (D), 12-mo-old (G) wild-type and CYP17A1-/- mice. Bar graphs denote calculated area under the curve for plasma glucose per hour of glucose administration,6-mo-old (E), 12-mo-old (H). Insulin tolerance tests were performed in 6-mo-old (F), 12-mo-old (I) wild-type and CYP17A1-/- mice. Insulin tolerance test data are presented as % of time at 0 plasma glucose levels
