Update on incretin hormones [PDF]
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.

Glucagon-like peptide-1 analogues: An overview
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?
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
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
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.
