Swimming training reduces glucose-amplifying pathway and cholinergic responses in islets from lean- and MSG-obese rats.

Here, we investigate the effects of exercise training on glucose- and cholinergic-induced insulin secretion in pancreatic islets from obese and lean rats. Male Wistar rats were treated with monosodium glutamate (MSG) for the first 5 days of life, while control (CON) rats received saline. At 21 days, the rats were divided into exercised (EXE) and sedentary (SED) groups.
