  • Title: Effect of hepatic vagotomy and/or coeliac ganglionectomy on the delayed eating response to insulin and 2DG injection in rats.
    Author: Granneman J, Friedman MI.
    Journal: Physiol Behav; 1984 Sep; 33(3):495-7. PubMed ID: 6393163.
    Abstract:
    The eating response that occurs following recovery from the effects of insulin or 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2DG) injection was examined in rats with hepatic vagotomy and/or coeliac ganglionectomy. Rats were deprived of food and injected with either saline (1 ml/kg), regular insulin (3 U/kg) or 2DG (200 mg/kg). Plasma glucose was measured periodically over the next 6 hr and then food was returned and intakes were measured over the next 2 hr. Rats increased food intake 6-8 hr after insulin or 2DG injection compared to the saline (control) condition. Nerve section did not affect the plasma glucose or food intake responses to insulin or 2DG injection. The results indicate that the innervation of the liver via the vagus nerve or coeliac ganglion is not involved in the delayed eating response to insulin and 2DG injection.
