Hydrocarbon-Stitched Peptide Agonists of Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor
Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is a natural peptide agonist of the GLP-1 receptor (GLP-1R) found on pancreatic β-cells. Engagement of the receptor stimulates insulin release in a glucose-dependent fashion and increases β-cell mass, two ideal features for pharmacologic management of type 2 diabetes.

Differential effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists on heart rate [PDF]
While glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are known to increase heart rate (HR), it is insufficiently recognized that the extent varies greatly between the various agonists and is affected by the assessment methods employed.

Abstract Large clinical data underscore that heart failure is independently associated to an increased risk of negative cognitive outcome and dementia. Emerging evidence suggests that cerebral hypoperfusion, stemming from reduced cardiac output and vascular pathology, may contribute to the largely overlapping vascular dementia and Alzheimer's disease ...

Dual Glucose-Dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide and Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists
Glucagon-like peptide-1 is the most potent incretin secreted from the intestinal tract. It is synthesized by L-cells in the jejunum and distal ileum of the gastrointestinal system.

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-

Sequeira et al. reveal how the glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist (GLP‐1‐RA) semaglutide restores cardiomyocyte function in rats subjected to a high‐fat/high‐fructose diet (HFD). Employing fluorescence‐ and patch‐clamp technology in isolated cardiac myocytes, they demonstrate that semaglutide reverses HFD‐induced activation of L‐type calcium ...
