The fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) family shows a great potential in the treatment of diabetes, but little attention is paid to basic FGF (bFGF). In this study, to explore the metabolic effects of bFGF on diabetes, metabolic changes in serum and feces were analyzed in the normal rats, the streptozocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats and the bFGF-treated diabetic rats using a <sup>1</sup>H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based metabolomic approach. Interestingly, bFGF treatment significantly decre ...[more]
