We have previously shown a negative correlation between serum bilirubin levels and prevalence of type 2 diabetes, suggesting that bilirubin inhibits development of this disease. To confirm this hypothesis, we investigated whether administration of biliverdin, the precursor of bilirubin, protects against the deterioration of glucose tolerance in db/db mice, a rodent model of type 2 diabetes.
