Update on incretin hormones [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2011
The incretin hormones glucagon‐like‐peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) and glucose‐dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) are released from the intestine following oral ingestion of nutrients. Incretins promote insulin secretion, while GLP‐1 also inhibits glucagon release and gastric emptying, minimizing postprandial glucose excursions.

Brain access of incretins and incretin receptor agonists to their central targets relevant for appetite suppression and weight loss

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology. Endocrinology and Metabolism
Incretin-based pharmacotherapies provide novel efficient and safe therapeutic options to curb appetite and produce weight loss in obese patients. Delivered systemically, these molecules produce pleiotropic metabolic benefits, but the target sites ...

Glucagon-like peptide-1 analogues: An overview

open access: yesIndian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2013
Abnormalities of the incretin axis have been implicated in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and gastroinhibitory intestinal peptide constitutes >90% of all the incretin function.

GLP-1 and GIP in Type 1 Diabetes Therapy: A Time for Reappraisal?

open access: yesDiabetology
Incretin hormones, such as glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), are essential regulators of glucose homeostasis, energy balance, and metabolic communication between organs.

The Sensory Mechanisms of Nutrient-Induced GLP-1 Secretion

open access: yesMetabolites, 2022
The enteroendocrine system of the gut regulates energy homeostasis through the release of hormones. Of the gut-derived hormones, GLP-1 is particularly interesting, as analogs of the hormone have proven to be highly effective for the treatment of type 2 ...

Problems of hypoglycemic therapy in diabetic patients with acute coronary syndrome

open access: yesМедицинский совет, 2016
Patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) are classified as "vulnerable patients" suffering from acute coronary syndrome (ACS) 2-3 times more often and have a pessimistic prognosis compared with normoglycemic patients.
