Effects of Fasting on Glucagon-like peptide-1 hormone (GLP-1), and Lipid Profile Indices in Obese and Thin Women
Introduction: Glucagon-like peptide-1 hormone (GLP-1) contributes to the regulation of insulin and glucose concentration. However, the effects of fasting on GLP-1 response in different people has not been determined yet. The aim of the present research was to investigate the effect of fasting on GLP-1 and the lipid profile of obese and thin women.Materials and methods: In this research, 25 obes...
متن کاملGlucagon-Like Peptide-1
Ma Glucagon-like peptide-1-(7-36) amide (GLP-1) is a human incretin hormone responsible for the release of insulin in response to food. Pre-clinical and human physiological studies have demonstrated cardioprotection from ischemia-reperfusion injury. It can reduce infarct size, ischemic left ventricular dysfunction, and myocardial stunning. GLP-1 receptor agonists have also been shown to reduce ...
متن کاملGlucagon and glucagon-like peptide receptors as drug targets.
Glucagon and the glucagon-like peptides are derived from a common proglucagon precursor, and regulate energy homeostasis through interaction with a family of distinct G protein coupled receptors. Three proglucagon-derived peptides, glucagon, GLP-1, and GLP-2, play important roles in energy intake, absorption, and disposal, as elucidated through studies utilizing peptide antagonists and receptor...
متن کاملThe physiology of glucagon-like peptide 1.
Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is a 30-amino acid peptide hormone produced in the intestinal epithelial endocrine L-cells by differential processing of proglucagon, the gene which is expressed in these cells. The current knowledge regarding regulation of proglucagon gene expression in the gut and in the brain and mechanisms responsible for the posttranslational processing are reviewed. GLP-1 i...
متن کاملDirect and indirect mechanisms regulating secretion of glucagon-like peptide-1 and glucagon-like peptide-2.
The proglucagon-derived peptide family consists of three highly related peptides, glucagon and the glucagon-like peptides GLP-1 and GLP-2. Although the biological activity of glucagon as a counter-regulatory hormone has been known for almost a century, studies conducted over the past decade have now also elucidated important roles for GLP-1 as an antidiabetic hormone, and for GLP-2 as a stimula...
