Renoprotective mechanisms of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an incretin hormone, secreted from gut endocrine cells, which acts to potentiate nutrient-induced insulin secretion. Activation of its receptor, GLP-1R, decreases glucagon secretion and gastric emptying, thereby decreasing blood glucose and body weight. It is largely through these mechanisms that Glucagon-like peptide-

Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor: mechanisms and advances in therapy
AbstractThe glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor, known as GLP-1R, is a vital component of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) family and is found primarily on the surfaces of various cell types within the human body. This receptor specifically interacts with GLP-1, a key hormone that plays an integral role in regulating blood glucose levels ...
