Abstract

We have shown previously that the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1)-(7–36) amide increases myocardial glucose uptake and improves left ventricular (LV) and systemic hemodynamics in both conscious dogs with pacing-induced dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and humans with LV systolic dysfunction after acute myocardial infarction. However, GLP-1-(7–36) is rapidly degraded in the plasma to GLP-1-(9–36) by dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP IV), raising the issue of which peptide is the active moiety. By way of methodology, we compared the efficacy of a 48-h continuous intravenous infusion of GLP-1-(7–36) (1.5 pmol·kg−1·min−1) to GLP-1-(9–36) (1.5 pmol·kg−1·min−1) in 28 conscious, chronically instrumented dogs with pacing-induced DCM by measuring LV function and transmyocardial substrate uptake under basal and insulin-stimulated conditions using hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamps. As a result, dogs with DCM demonstrated myocardial insulin resistance under basal and insulin-stimulated conditions. Both GLP-1-(7–36) and GLP-1-(9–36) significantly reduced ( P < 0.01) LV end-diastolic pressure [GLP-1-(7–36), 28 ± 1 to 15 ± 2 mmHg; GLP-1-(9–36), 29 ± 2 to 16 ± 1 mmHg] and significantly increased ( P < 0.01) the first derivative of LV pressure [GLP-1-(7–36), 1,315 ± 81 to 2,195 ± 102 mmHg/s; GLP-1-(9–36), 1,336 ± 77 to 2,208 ± 68 mmHg] and cardiac output [GLP-1-(7–36), 1.5 ± 0.1 to 1.9 ± 0.1 l/min; GLP-1-(9–36), 2.0 ± 0.1 to 2.4 ± 0.05 l/min], whereas an equivolume infusion of saline had no effect. Both peptides increased myocardial glucose uptake but without a significant increase in plasma insulin. During the GLP-1-(9–36) infusion, negligible active (NH 2-terminal) peptide was measured in the plasma. In conclusion, in DCM, GLP-1-(9–36) mimics the effects of GLP-1-(7–36) in stimulating myocardial glucose uptake and improving LV and systemic hemodynamics through insulinomimetic as opposed to insulinotropic effects. These data suggest that GLP-1-(9–36) amide is an active peptide.

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.
