Purpose: Bariatric surgery is an efficient procedure for the remission of type 2 diabetes (T2DM) from morbid obesity. However, in Asian countries, the mean body mass index (BMI) of T2DM patients is about 25 kg/m2.

Pleiotropic effects of incretins
Drugs that augment the incretin system [glucagon like peptide (GLP) agonists and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors] represent a novel class of anti-hyperglycemic agents that have shown to improve the health and survival of beta-cells (improvement in postprandial hyperglycemia) and suppress glucagon (improvement in fasting hyperglycemia).

Metabolic and Digestive Functions of Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 in Pigs
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a hormone with multiple biological effects that plays a key role in glucose metabolism, digestion, and energy homeostasis.

Background: Incretin mimetics, including glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 receptor agonist) and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, have been increasingly utilized for glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D ...

Abstract The incretin hormones glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) and glucose‐dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) play critical roles in co‐ordinating postprandial metabolism, including modulation of insulin secretion and food intake.

Luseogliflozin restores GIP responsiveness in diabetic male mice with preserved β‐cell function
Impaired glucose‐dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP)‐induced insulin secretion is a characteristic feature of type 2 diabetes, whereas glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) responsiveness is relatively preserved. Our previous study proposed that chronic

The molecular mechanisms of incretin resistance in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM)
Incretin hormones, specifically glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), serve as crucial mediators of postprandial glucose homeostasis by primarily enhancing glucose-stimulated insulin secretion.

The incretin-bone axis: molecular mechanisms and clinical implications
Incretin hormones, primarily glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), are key regulators of postprandial glucose homeostasis and exert pleiotropic actions beyond pancreatic β-cell function.
