How glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists work

open access: yesEndocrine Connections, 2021
In recent years, glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) have become central in the treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2D). In addition to their glucose-lowering properties with low risk of hypoglycaemia, GLP-1RAs reduce body weight and show ...

Selective polypeptide ligand binding to the extracellular surface of the transmembrane domains of the class B GPCRs GLP-1R and GCGR

open access: yesiScience, 2023
Summary: Crystal and cryo-EM structures of the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) and glucagon receptor (GCGR) bound with their peptide ligands have been obtained with full-length constructs, indicating that the extracellular domain (ECD) is ...

The therapeutic potential of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor analogs for neuroinflammation in the setting of asthma [PDF]

open access: yesExploration of Asthma & Allergy
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a hormone that regulates blood glucose levels and is produced by the enteroendocrine glands in the large and small intestines in response to the consumption of foods that contain carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.

Crystal Structure of Glucagon-like Peptide-1 in Complex with the Extracellular Domain of the Glucagon-like Peptide-1 Receptor [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2010
GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) is an incretin released from intestinal L-cells in response to food intake. Activation of the GLP-1 receptor potentiates the synthesis and release of insulin from pancreatic beta-cells in a glucose-dependent manner. The GLP-1 receptor belongs to class B of the G-protein-coupled receptors, a subfamily characterized by a ...

Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor expression in the human eye [PDF]

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, 2018
Semaglutide is a human glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) analogue that is in development for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. In the pre‐approval cardiovascular outcomes trial SUSTAIN 6, semaglutide was associated with a significant increase in the risk of diabetic retinopathy (DR) complications vs placebo.

Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Imaging for Localization of Insulinomas [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2009
The surgical removal of insulinomas is hampered by difficulties to localize it using conventional radiological procedures. Recently these tumors were shown to exhibit a very high density of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptors (GLP-1R) in vitro that may be used as specific targets for in vivo receptor radiolabeling.The objective of the study was to test ...

Repositioning of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors and glucagon like peptide-1 agonists as potential neuroprotective agents

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2019
Repositioning of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors and glucagon like peptide-1 receptor agonists is a breakthrough in the field of neural regeneration research increasing glucagon like peptide-1 bioavailability, hence its neuroprotective activities.

Multiple Factors Related to the Secretion of Glucagon-Like Peptide-1

open access: yesInternational Journal of Endocrinology, 2015
The glucagon-like peptide-1 is secreted by intestinal L cells in response to nutrient ingestion. It regulates the secretion and sensitivity of insulin while suppressing glucagon secretion and decreasing postprandial glucose levels.
