Glucose Sensors in Viscera and Control of Blood Glucose Level

A Niijima and N Mei

In addition to the well-known glucose-responsive neurons in the hypothalamus, recent studies of sensory signals from the visceral area have brought us a new understanding of the mechanisms that control the blood glucose level. The activity of efferent fibres to the pancreas and the liver is precisely modulated, not only by central hypothalamic glucoreceptors but also by peripheral (hepatic and intestinal) glucoreceptors.
