Reduction of hyperglycemia in STZ-induced diabetic mice by prophylactic treatment with heat-killed <i>Mycobacterium aurum</i>: possible effects on glucose utilization, mitochondrial uncoupling, and oxidative stress in liver and skeletal muscle.

aurum –pre-treated group showed a trend toward decreased blood glucose levels for 5 weeks after STZ injection, whereas, at week 6, the HK M. aurum –pre-treated group had a significantly ( p < 0.05) lower (~26%) blood glucose level than its corresponding diabetic control mice group ( Figure 2B ).
