The glucagon-like Peptide-2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Multiple peptide hormones produced within the gastrointestinal system act also in the central nervous system and aid in the regulation of energy homeostasis and metabolism. The list of these peptides is progressively increasing and includes glucagon-like

Role of Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) Receptor Agonists in Hypoglycemia

open access: yesClinical Medicine Insights: Endocrinology and Diabetes, 2021
A relatively recent addition to the arsenal of antidiabetic drugs used for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has been the “incretin mimetics,” a group of drugs that work on the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor and enhance insulin ...

Clinical pharmacology of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists

open access: yesHormones, 2018
Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are an important asset in the armamentarium for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (type 2 DM). Incretin failure is a critical etiopathogenetic feature of type 2 DM, which, if reversed, results in improved glycaemic control.

A real-world propensity analysis of the impact of GLP-1 receptor agonists on cancer therapy-related cardiac dysfunction

open access: yesCommunications Medicine
Background Heart damage caused by cancer treatment can lead to heart failure, hospital admission, and death. Medications known as glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists are widely used to treat type 2 diabetes with cardioprotective potentials. Whether

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.

Recent clinical and pharmacological advancements of incretin-based therapy and the effects of incretin on physiology

open access: yesJournal of Diabetology
A novel therapeutic target for diabetes mellitus is incretin-based therapies, glucagon-like peptide-1, and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptides are released from the gastrointestinal (GI) tract and act on beta cells of pancreatic islets by ...

Glucagon Receptor Signaling and Lipid Metabolism

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
Glucagon is secreted from the pancreatic alpha cells upon hypoglycemia and stimulates hepatic glucose production. Type 2 diabetes is associated with dysregulated glucagon secretion, and increased glucagon concentrations contribute to the diabetic ...
