Description
Glucagonlike peptide I (7-37) [GLP-I-(7-37)], encoded with glucagon and glucagonlike peptide II and intervening peptide II in the rat and human glucagon gene, is processed from proglucagon in both pancreas and intestine and is a potent stimulator of insulin secretion. Unequivocal insulin release from the isolated perfused rat pancreas is elicited by a 10(-11) M concentration of this peptide, and a weak response is found at 10(-12) M. We found that GLP-I-(7-37) is approximately 100 times more potent than glucagon in the stimulation of insulin secretion. Insulin release in response to GLP-I-(7-37) is highly dependent on the ambient glucose concentration; no response is detectable at a glucose concentration of 2.8 mM, and at 6.6 and 16.7 mM, insulin release is augmented by 4.7 and 22.8 ng/ml, respectively. GLP-1 (7-37) is a truncated, bioactive form of GLP-1 that is the product of proglucagon processing in intestinal endocrine L cells. It is a potent insulinotropic hormone. Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 Fragment 7-37 human (GLP-1-(7-37)) is an amino-truncated form of GLP-1.[2]
