Physiology of incretins and loss of incretin effect in type 2 diabetes and obesity.
An important role in the regulation of glucose homeostasis is played by incretins, which are gut-derived hormones released in response to nutrient ingestion.

Incretins and their influence on the course of type 2 diabetes in patients with morbid obesity after bariatric oper [PDF]
Most researchers support the important role of incretins, particularly glucagon-like peptide-1 in improving metabolic control in patients with type 2 diabetes after bariatric operations, mostly involving shunting.

Obesity without diabetes: the role of hormonal regulation
Aim.Obese patients without diabetes present an interesting phenotype to explore protective mechanisms against type 2 diabetes (T2D) development. In our study we looked for specific hormonal features of obese patients without T2D. Materials and methods.

The role of incretins on insulin function and glucose homeostasis
The incretin effect - the amplification of insulin secretion after oral versus intravenous administration of glucose as a mean to improve glucose tolerance - was suspected even before insulin was discovered, and today we know that the effect is due to ...

The biology of incretin hormones [PDF]
Gut peptides, exemplified by glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) are secreted in a nutrient-dependent manner and stimulate glucose-dependent insulin secretion. Both GIP and GLP-1 also promote beta cell proliferation and inhibit apoptosis, leading to expansion of beta cell mass.
