Exenatide Pretreatment Improved Graft Function in Nonhuman Primate Islet Recipients Compared to Treatment after Transplant Only
The GLP-1 receptor agonist, exenatide, has previously been shown to improve insulin secretion, protect beta cells from apoptosis, and promote beta cell regeneration. We propose that pretreatment with exenatide will promote islet graft survival and improve graft function. Pancreatectomized cynomolgus monkeys underwent islet allotransplantation and were treated with exenatide beginning on day 0 o...
متن کاملThe use of exenatide in islet transplant recipients with chronic allograft dysfunction: safety, efficacy, and metabolic effects.
BACKGROUND A current limitation of islet transplantation is reduced long-term graft function. The glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, exenatide (Byetta, Amylin Pharmaceuticals, CA) has properties that could improve existing islet function, prevent further loss of islet mass and possibly even stimulate islet regeneration. METHODS This prospective study evaluated the safety, efficacy, and...
متن کاملThe use of exenatide in severely burned pediatric patients
INTRODUCTION Intensive insulin treatment (IIT) has been shown to improve outcomes post-burn in severely burnt patients. However, it increases the incidence of hypoglycemia and is associated with risks and complications. We hypothesized that exenatide would decrease plasma glucose levels post-burn to levels similar to those achieved with IIT, and reduce the amount of exogenous insulin administer...

15 صفحه اولExenatide Use in the Management of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus
Exenatide is a GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) agonist that has been approved in the UK for use in the management of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) since 2006. It acts by increasing glucose-induced insulin release and by reducing glucagon secretion postprandially. It therefore increases insulin secretion and reduces glucose levels, especially postprandially. It also reduces gastric emptying an...
