Abstract

Background Rapid enzymatic degradation of the incretin hormone, glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), limits therapeutic use of the native peptide for diabetes. However, enzymatically stable analogues of GIP, such as (d-Ala(2))GIP, have been generated, but are still susceptible to renal filtration. Methods The present study examines the in vitro and in vivo biological actions of a novel, acylated GIP analogue, (d-Ala(2))GIP[Lys(37)PAL]. Results In BRIN-BD11 cells, (d-Ala(2))GIP[Lys(37)PAL] concentration-dependently stimulated (p<0.05 to p<0.001) insulin secretion at 5.6 and 16.7mM glucose. Intraperitoneal administration of (d-Ala(2))GIP[Lys(37)PAL] to normal mice 8h prior to a glucose load significantly reduced (p<0.05) the overall glycaemic excursion compared to controls, and increased (p<0.001) the insulinotropic response compared to (d-Ala(2))GIP and saline treated high fat control mice. Once daily administration of (d-Ala(2))GIP[Lys(37)PAL] for 21days in high fat fed mice did not affect energy intake, body weight or fat deposition. However, circulating blood glucose was significantly lower (p<0.05) accompanied by increased (p<0.05) insulin concentrations by day 21. In addition, (d-Ala(2))GIP[Lys(37)PAL] treatment significantly (p<0.01) reduced the overall glycaemic excursion and increased pancreatic insulin content (p<0.05) and the insulinotropic response (p<0.01) to an exogenous glucose challenge on day 21. Chronic treatment with (d-Ala(2))GIP[Lys(37)PAL] did not result in resistance to the metabolic effects of a bolus injection of native GIP. Finally, insulin sensitivity was significantly improved (p<0.001) in (d-Ala(2))GIP[Lys(37)PAL] treated mice compared to high fat controls. Conclusions These data confirm that (d-Ala(2))GIP[Lys(37)PAL] is a stable, long-acting potent GIP agonist. General significance (d-Ala(2))GIP[Lys(37)PAL] may be suitable for further evaluation and future clinical development.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
