Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists and muscle strength changes in older adults: Risks beyond muscle mass reductions

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP)/Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonists are increasingly prescribed for the management of obesity and type 2 diabetes, yet research pertinent to their effects on muscle health is limited. Considering the central role of muscle strength as a sarcopenia component, this article summarizes emerging ...

Understanding the Incretin Effect [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2011
It is well known that the incretin effect contributes as much as half of the insulin secretory response to oral glucose load and that this effect is reduced along with worsening glucose tolerance in those with type 2 diabetes. Gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) are the two primary incretin hormones secreted from ...

Anchored phosphatases modulate glucose homeostasis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Endocrine release of insulin principally controls glucose homeostasis. Nutrient-induced exocytosis of insulin granules from pancreatic β-cells involves ion channels and mobilization of Ca(2+) and cyclic AMP (cAMP) signalling pathways.
