Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) are secreted upon eating to lower blood sugar. GLP-1 and GIP were found to induce the secretion of substance P (SP) from cultured sensory nerves. SP enhances insulin secretion. Mesenteric lymphatic fluid (MLF) also stimulates sensory neurons in a diet-dependent manner. These studies identify new actions of GLP-1 and GIP as incretins and suggest a mechanism for sensory nerves to respond to diet through MLF.
