Abstract

The present study examined the glucose-lowering and insulinotropic properties of acylated GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) and GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) peptides in Type 2 diabetes and obesity. GLP-1, GIP, Liraglutide, N-AcGIP(Lys37Myr) (N-acetylGIP with myristic acid conjugated at Lys37), a simple combination of both peptides and a Lira–AcGIP preparation [overnight preparation of Liraglutide and N-AcGIP(Lys37Myr)] were incubated with DPP-IV (dipeptidyl peptidase-IV) to assess peptide stability, and BRIN–BD11 cells were used to evaluate cAMP production and insulin secretion. Acute glucose-lowering and insulinotropic actions were evaluated in Swiss TO mice. Subchronic studies on glucose homoeostasis, insulin secretion, food intake and bodyweight were evaluated in ob/ob mice. Liraglutide, N-AcGIP(Lys37Myr), a simple combination of both peptides and the Lira–AcGIP preparation demonstrated improved DPP-IV resistance (P<0.001), while stimulating cAMP production and insulin secretion (1.4–2-fold; P<0.001). The Lira–AcGIP preparation was more potent at lowering plasma glucose (20–51% reduction; P<0.05–P<0.001) and stimulating insulin secretion (1.5–1.8-fold; P<0.05–P<0.001) compared with Liraglutide and N-AcGIP(Lys37Myr) or a simple peptide combination. Daily administration of the Lira–AcGIP preparation to ob/ob mice lowered bodyweight (7–9%; P<0.05), food intake (23%; P<0.05) and plasma glucose (46% reduction; P<0.001), while increasing plasma insulin (1.5–1.6-fold; P<0.001). The Lira–AcGIP preparation enhanced glucose tolerance, insulin response to glucose and insulin content (P<0.05–P<0.001). These findings demonstrate that a combined preparation of the acylated GLP-1 and GIP peptides Liraglutide and N-AcGIP(Lys37Myr) markedly improved glucose-lowering and insulinotropic properties in diabetic obesity compared with either incretin mimetic given individually.

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.
