Glucagon-like peptide-1 is a physiological incretin in rat.
Glucagon-like peptide-1 7-36 amide (GLP-1) has been postulated to be the primary hormonal mediator of the entero-insular axis but evidence has been indirect. The discovery of exendin (9-39), a GLP-1 receptor antagonist, allowed this to be further investigated. The IC50 for GLP-1 receptor binding, using RIN 5AH beta-cell membranes, was found to be 0.36 nmol/l for GLP-1 and 3.44 nmol/l for exendi...
متن کاملMechanisms mediating the diuretic and natriuretic actions of the incretin hormone glucagon-like peptide-1.
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a gut incretin hormone considered a promising therapeutic agent for type 2 diabetes because it stimulates beta cell proliferation and insulin secretion in a glucose-dependent manner. Cumulative evidence supports a role for GLP-1 in modulating renal function; however, the mechanisms by which GLP-1 induces diuresis and natriuresis have not been completely establ...
متن کاملEffects 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: evolution of an incretin into a treatment for diabetes.
Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is a product of proglucagon that is secreted by specialized intestinal endocrine cells after meals. GLP-1 is insulinotropic and plays a role in the incretin effect, the augmented insulin response observed when glucose is absorbed through the gut. GLP-1 also appears to regulate a number of processes that reduce fluctuations in blood glucose, such as gastric emptyi...
