The Role of D-allulose and Erythritol on the Activity of the Gut Sweet Taste Receptor and Gastrointestinal Satiation Hormone Release in Humans: A Randomized, Controlled Trial [PDF]

The Journal of Nutrition, 2022
Glucose induces the release of gastrointestinal (GI) satiation hormones, such as glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and peptide tyrosine tyrosine (PYY), in part via the activation of the gut sweet taste receptor (T1R2/T1R3).The primary objective was to investigate the importance of T1R2/T1R3 for the release of cholecystokinin (CCK), GLP-1, and PYY in ...

Bitter taste receptors influence glucose homeostasis. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2008
TAS1R- and TAS2R-type taste receptors are expressed in the gustatory system, where they detect sweet- and bitter-tasting stimuli, respectively. These receptors are also expressed in subsets of cells within the mammalian gastrointestinal tract, where they

Gastrointestinal effects of incretin hormone receptor agonists

Clinical Endocrinology and Endocrine Surgery
Agonists of incretin receptors (AIRs), such as glucagon‑like peptide‑1 (GLP‑1) and glucose‑dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP), are widely used in the complex treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity worldwide. To date, there are 7 AIRs approved by the FDA and available for clinical use.
