Retraction Note: therapeutic stimulation of GLP-1 and GIP protein with DPP-4 inhibitors for type-2 diabetes treatment
نویسندگان
چکیده
Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibition is a new treatment for type-2 diabetes. DPP-4 inhibition increases levels of active GLP-1. GLP-1 enhances insulin secretion and diminishes glucagon secretion, in this manner reducing glucose concentrations in blood. A number of DPP-4 inhibitors are under clinical development. However, the durability and long-term safety of DPP-4 inhibition remain to be established. These synthetic DPP-4 inhibitors are showing some side effects. Herbal medicines are alternative medicine over synthetic drugs that can relieve the patients. Various research studies have been carried all over the world to evaluate the efficacy of herbs in the treatment of Type II diabetes mellitus. For a long time type II diabetes mellitus has been treated orally with herbal medicines, because plant products are frequently prescribed due to their less toxicity than conventional medicines.

The gastrointestinal tract is an often overlooked but complex endocrine organ, home to dozens of regulatory peptides produced in specialized endocrine cells and enteric neurons. These hormones subserve complex roles as signals regulating appetite, gastrointestinal motility, control of secretion from the exocrine and endocrine pancreas, and nutrient absorption (1). The majority of gut peptides a...

متن کاملIncretin-based Therapy in the Management of Type 2 Diabetes
Type 2 diabetes is a progressive disease due to reduced beta cell mass, which results in the failure of traditional treatment and the need for more intensive therapeutical measures to maintain a good glycaemic control. Within the last decade there was a preoccupation for developing new classes of drugs to achieve several goals: glycaemic control, weight loss and to preserve residual beta cell m...
متن کاملDipeptidyl peptidase‐4 inhibitors and prevention of bone fractures: Effects beyond glyemic control
Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors improve glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes by preventing degradation of two incretin hormones, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP). GLP-1 and GIP are secreted from the intestine on ingestion of various nutrients, and enhance insulin secretion from pancreatic b-cells glucose-dependently. B...
