Models for Incretin Research: From the Intestine to the Whole Body [PDF]
Incretin hormones are produced by enteroendocrine cells (EECs) in the intestine in response to ingested nutrient stimuli. The incretin effect is defined as the difference in the insulin secretory response between the oral glucose tolerance test and an ...

Mechanisms of the incretin effect in subjects with normal glucose tolerance and patients with type 2 diabetes. [PDF]
The incretin effect on insulin secretion was investigated in 8 subjects with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and 8 with normal glucose tolerance (NGT), using 25, 75, and 125 g oral glucose tolerance tests (OGTT) and isoglycemic intravenous glucose infusions (IIGI).

The Role of GLP-1 Signaling in Hypoglycemia due to Hyperinsulinism
Incretin hormones play an important role in the regulation of glucose homeostasis through their actions on the beta cells and other tissues. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) are the two main incretins

Recent Advances in Incretin-Based Pharmacotherapies for the Treatment of Obesity and Diabetes
The incretin hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) has received enormous attention during the past three decades as a therapeutic target for the treatment of obesity and type 2 diabetes.

Incretin effect determines glucose trajectory and insulin sensitivity in youths with obesity
In youths with obesity, the gut hormone potentiation of insulin secretion — the incretin effect — is blunted. We explored the longitudinal impact of the incretin effect during pubertal transition on β cell function and insulin sensitivity.

INCRETIN-BASED THERAPY AND CANCER: ARE THEY ENEMIES OR ALLIES? [PDF]
The link between cancer and diabetes is established but not fully understood. Incretin-based therapies have been increasingly used in the past decade for management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Exposure–Response Analysis of Cardiovascular Outcome Trials With Incretin-Based Therapies
Our study aimed to evaluate the exposure–response relationship between incretin-based medications and the risk of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) using cardiovascular outcome trials (CVOTs).

AN OVERVIEW OF INCRETIN-BASED THERAPIES: PHARMACOLOGY AND FUTURE PERSPECTIVES [PDF]
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a gut-derived incretin hormone that is released upon nutrient ingestion stimulating insulin secretion, suppressing glucagon secretion, and suppressing appetite and food intake which contribute to glucose homeostasis ...
