Exendin-4, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, attenuates prostate cancer growth.
Recently, pleiotropic benefits of incretin therapy beyond glycemic control have been reported. Although cancer is one of the main causes of death in diabetic patients, few reports describe the anticancer effects of incretin. Here, we examined the effect of the incretin drug exendin (Ex)-4, a GLP-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonist, on prostate cancer. In human prostate cancer tissue obtained from patie...
متن کاملBrain activation following peripheral administration of the GLP-1 receptor agonist exendin-4.
The aim of our study was to investigate the anorectic and brain stimulatory effects of various doses of exendin-4 (Ex-4) and to investigate the role of the vagus nerve in Ex-4-induced brain activation. A dose-related increase in c-fos mRNA expression was observed following Ex-4 administration (0.155-15.5 μg/kg). Doses of Ex-4 that caused anorexia without aversive effects (0.155, 0.775 μg/kg) in...

متن کاملSeparation of emetic and anorexic responses of exendin-4, a GLP-1 receptor agonist in Suncus murinus (house musk shrew).
The use of glucagon-like peptide-1 (7-36) amide (GLP-1) receptor agonists for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus is commonly associated with nausea and vomiting. Therefore, the present studies investigated the potential of GLP-1 receptor ligands to modulate emesis and feeding in Suncus murinus. Exendin-4, a selective GLP-1 receptor agonist, was administered subcutaneously (1-30 nmol/kg) ...
متن کاملCloning and functional expression of the human islet GLP-1 receptor. Demonstration that exendin-4 is an agonist and exendin-(9-39) an antagonist of the receptor.
A complementary DNA for a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor was isolated from a human pancreatic islet cDNA library. The isolated clone encoded a protein with 90% identity to the rat receptor. In stably transfected fibroblasts, the receptor bound [125I]GLP-1 with high affinity (Kd = 0.5 nM) and was coupled to adenylate cyclase as detected by a GLP-1-dependent increase in cAMP production (EC50 = ...
