Contrasting effects of afferent and efferent vagal nerve stimulation on insulin secretion and blood glucose regulation

Parasympathetic activation reduces hepatic glucose release and increases pancreatic insulin secretion in hyperglycemic conditions. Thus, vagal nerve stimulation (VNS) may potentially be effective in treating type II diabetes. To investigate this possibility, we hypothesized that VNS reduces blood gl...
