GLP-1 and weight loss: unraveling the diverse neural circuitry.
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is currently one of the most promising biological systems for the development of effective obesity pharmacotherapies. Long-acting GLP-1 analogs potently reduce food intake and body weight, and recent discoveries reveal that peripheral administration of these drugs reduces food intake largely through humoral pathways involving direct action on brain GLP-1 receptor...
متن کاملMechanisms behind GLP - 1 induced weight loss
Endogenous glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an incretin hormone that plays an important role in maintaining pancreatic function as well as caloric intake. Since the advent of GLP-1 receptor agonists resistant to dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) (degradation, it has become clear that their chronic use promotes negative energy balance. With regard to their effects on body weight, the principal ac...
متن کاملGLP-1 Receptor Agonists: Nonglycemic Clinical Effects in Weight Loss and Beyond
OBJECTIVE Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists are indicated for treatment of type 2 diabetes since they mimic the actions of native GLP-1 on pancreatic islet cells, stimulating insulin release, while inhibiting glucagon release, in a glucose-dependent manner. The observation of weight loss has led to exploration of their potential as antiobesity agents, with liraglutide 3.0 mg day...
متن کاملThe arcuate nucleus mediates GLP-1 receptor agonist liraglutide-dependent weight loss.
Liraglutide is a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analog marketed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Besides lowering blood glucose, liraglutide also reduces body weight. It is not fully understood how liraglutide induces weight loss or to what degree liraglutide acts directly in the brain. Here, we determined that liraglutide does not activate GLP-1-producing neurons in the hindbrain, and li...
متن کاملCorrelation between Pre and Postoperative Levels of Glp-1/glp-2 and Weight Loss after Roux-en-y Gastric Bypass: a Prospective Study
Background: The role of gut hormones in glucose homeostasis and weight loss achievement and maintenance after bariatric surgery appears to be a key point in the understanding of the beneficial effects observed following these procedures. Aim: To determine whether there is a correlation between the pre and postoperative levels of both GLP-1 and GLP-2 and the excess weight loss after Roux-en-Y ...
