Abstract

The incretins glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) are gut hormones that act via the enteroinsular axis to potentiate insulin secretion from the pancreas in a glucose-dependent manner. Both GLP-1 receptor and GIP receptor knockout mice ( GLP-1R −/− and GIPR −/− , respectively) have been generated to investigate the physiological importance of this axis. Although reduced GIP action is a component of type 2 diabetes, GIPR-deficient mice exhibit only moderately impaired glucose tolerance. The present study was directed at investigating possible compensatory mechanisms that take place within the enteroinsular axis in the absence of GIP action. Although serum total GLP-1 levels in GIPR knockout mice were unaltered, insulin responses to GLP-1 from pancreas perfusions and static islet incubations were significantly greater (40–60%) in GIPR −/− than in wild-type ( GIPR +/+ ) mice. Furthermore, GLP-1-induced cAMP production was also elevated twofold in the islets of the knockout animals. Pancreatic insulin content and gene expression were reduced in GIPR −/− mice compared with GIPR +/+ mice. Paradoxically, immunocytochemical studies showed a significant increase in β-cell area in the GIPR-null mice but with less intense staining for insulin. In conclusion, GIPR −/− mice exhibit altered islet structure and topography and increased islet sensitivity to GLP-1 despite a decrease in pancreatic insulin content and gene expression.

  • In vitro potency and preclinical efficacy data directly assessing the relationships between receptor potency ratios are lacking and confounded by the apparent reduction in potency of GIPR agonists in rodents and the compensatory sensitization of incretin receptors in genetic knockout mouse lines.

    “However, in vitro potency and preclinical efficacy data directly assessing these relationships is lacking and confounded by the apparent reduction in potency of GIPR agonists in rodents [61] and the compensatory sensitization of incretin receptors in genetic knockout mouse lines [62,63].”

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.
