Diabetes exacerbates inflammatory bowel disease in mice with diet-induced obesity

Figure 1 Body weight, blood glucose, food intake, and water consumption in diabetic diet-induced obese mice. A: Body weight; B: Change in body weight during dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) course; C: Blood glucose; D: Change in blood glucose during the DSS course; E: Food intake; F: Water consumption in high-fat diet-fed, diet-induced obese mice that received either vehicle (Veh) or streptozotocin to induce hyperglycemia and subsequently received Veh or DSS in the drinking water for 7 d to induce colitis. n = 7-8 per group, mean ± standard error of the mean. DSS: Dextran sodium sulfate; Veh: Vehicle; STZ: Streptozotocin.
