Using the murine GLP-1-secreting cell line, GLUTag, we have previously shown that GLP-1-secreting cells are electrically active and respond directly to increases in the glucose concentration by enhanced action potential firing and GLP-1 release [14, 15]
Studies using functional MRI (fMRI) with food pictures have shown that dietary intake and the consequent increase in endogenous GLP-1 levels reduce the activation of the insula region in diabetic subjects compared to lean subjects [15]
