Sodium acetate drives insulin secretion via parasympathetic activation. Postprandial blood glucose (a) and insulin (b) of zebrafish after ICV injection of saline or 75 mg/kg NaAc at 4 h and 6 h. Postprandial blood glucose (c) and insulin (d) of zebrafish after ICV injection of saline, 75 mg/kg NaAc, 0.1 mg/kg atropine, or 75 mg/kg NaAc + 0.1 mg/kg atropine at 4 h and 6 h. Data were expressed as the mean ± SEM (n = 3 biological replicates). *p < .05; **p < .01; ***p < .001
