Effects of the vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and related peptides on glioblastoma cell growth in vitro [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The growth rate of numerous cancer cell lines is regulated in part by actions of neuropeptides of the vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) family, which also includes pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating peptide (PACAP), glucagon, and peptide histidine ...

What doesn't kill you makes you stranger: Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (CD26) proteolysis differentially modulates the activity of many peptide hormones and cytokines generating novel cryptic bioactive ligands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) is an exopeptidase found either on cell surfaces where it is highly regulated in terms of its expression and surface availability (CD26) or in a free/circulating soluble constitutively available and intrinsically active form.

Dual Glucose-Dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide and Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists

open access: yesEndocrinology Research and Practice, 2022
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.

Nicotinamide riboside and pterostilbene reduces markers of hepatic inflammation in NAFLD: A double‐blind, placebo‐controlled clinical trial

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
NRPT 1X reduces ALT and ceramide 14:0 in 65% of subjects as compared to only 28% in the placebo group. Abstract Background and Aims The prevalence of NAFLD is increasing globally and on a path to becoming the most frequent cause of chronic liver disease. Strategies for the prevention and treatment of NAFLD are urgently needed.

Modulating effects of RAMPs on signaling profiles of the glucagon receptor family

open access: yesActa Pharmaceutica Sinica B, 2022
Receptor activity-modulating proteins (RAMPs) are accessory molecules that form complexes with specific G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and modulate their functions. It is established that RAMP interacts with the glucagon receptor family of GPCRs but

Insulin-like growth factor-1 is a negative modulator of glucagon secretion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Glucagon secretion involves a combination of paracrine, autocrine, hormonal, and autonomic neural mechanisms. Type 2 diabetes often presents impaired glucagon suppression by insulin and glucose.

Evolution of GCGR family ligand-receptor extensive cross-interaction systems suggests a therapeutic direction for hyperglycemia in mammals

open access: yesActa Biochimica et Biophysica Sinica, 2023
Glucose is essential to the physiological processes of vertebrates. Mammalian physiological stability requires a relatively stable blood glucose level (~5 mM), whereas other vertebrates have greater flexibility in

Diabetes and obesity. The role of agonists glucagon-like peptide-1 of in the treatment of type 2 diabetes

open access: yesСахарный диабет, 2018
Significant number of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus are obese. It is known that even glucose intolerance, as well as diabetes, can lead to vascular complications.

In Vivo Imaging of Transplanted Islets with ^(64)Cu-DO3A-VS-Cys^(40)-Exendin-4 by Targeting GLP-1 Receptor [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor (GLP-1R) is highly expressed in pancreatic islets, especially on β-cells. Therefore, a properly labeled ligand that binds to GLP-1R could be used for in vivo pancreatic islet imaging.

Glucagon-like peptide analogues for type 2 diabetes mellitus [PDF]

open access: yesCochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2011
Glucagon-like peptide analogues are a new class of drugs used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes that mimic the endogenous hormone glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1). GLP-1 is an incretin, a gastrointestinal hormone that is released into the circulation in response to ingested nutrients.
