Glucagon like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is an intestinal hormone that plays an important role in glucose metabolism. GLP-1 is released from mucosal L cells following nutrient ingestion and contributes to the incretin effect, with the enhancement of insulin secretion occurring with enteral compared with intravenous glucose administration. The mechanisms linking nutrient absorption and GLP-1 secretion are unknown, and studies addressing this topic, particularly in small animal models, have been hampered by the relatively low concentrations of GLP-1 in the circulation. We hypothesized that GLP-1 levels would be higher in samples of intestinal lymph compared with plasma and could provide a novel system in which to study meal-induced hormone secretion. We addressed this hypothesis in conscious rats with indwelling catheters in the portal vein and distal intestinal lymph duct. These animals had plasma and lymph sampled before and for 240 min after instillation of a liquid meal in the gastrointestinal tract. Lymph contained detectable concentrations of glucose, insulin, and GLP-1 that were reliably measured using our assays. Before and after the Ensure feeding, plasma insulin levels were approximately two times as high in portal plasma as intestinal lymph. In marked contrast, GLP-1 levels were five to six times higher in lymph relative to portal plasma following nutrient administration. This relative difference in GLP-1 levels was even greater when lymph was compared with peripheral plasma and dramatically exceeded the ratio of lymph to plasma peptide tyrosine-tyrosine concentrations. This is the first observation of a gastrointestinal hormone being disproportionately transported in lymph. The remarkable levels of GLP-1 in intestinal lymph demonstrate the potential for lymphatic sampling as a more sensitive means of studying the secretory physiology of this hormone in vivo. In addition, these data raise the possibility that intestinal lymph may serve as a specialized signaling conduit for regulatory peptides secreted by gastrointestinal endocrine cells.  相似文献

Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) is an important incretin produced in the K cells of the intestine and secreted into the circulating blood following ingestion of carbohydrate- and fat-containing meals. GIP contributes to the regulation of postprandial insulin secretion and is essential for normal glucose tolerance. We have established a method of assaying GIP in response to nutrients using the intestinal lymph fistula model. Administration of Ensure, a mixed-nutrient liquid meal, stimulated a significant increase in intestinal lymphatic GIP levels that were approximately threefold those of portal plasma. Following the meal, lymph GIP peaked at 60 min (P < 0.001) and remained elevated for 4 h. Intraduodenal infusions of isocaloric and isovolumetric lipid emulsions or glucose polymer induced lymph GIP concentrations that were four and seven times the basal levels, respectively. The combination of glucose plus lipid caused an even greater increase of lymph GIP than either nutrient alone. In summary, these findings demonstrated that intestinal lymph contains high concentrations of GIP that respond to both enteral carbohydrate and fat absorption. The change in lymphatic GIP concentration is greater than the change observed in the portal blood. These studies allow the detection of GIP levels at which they exert their local physiological actions. The combination of glucose and lipid has a potentiating effect in the stimulation of GIP secretion. We conclude from these studies that the lymph fistula rat is a novel approach to study in vivo GIP secretion in response to nutrient feeding in conscious rats.  相似文献

Physiological secretion of bile acids has previously been linked to the regulation of blood glucose. GLP-1 is an intestinal peptide hormone with important glucose-lowering actions, such as stimulation of insulin secretion and inhibition of glucagon secretion. In this investigation, we assessed the ability of several bile acid compounds to secrete GLP-1 in vitro in STC-1 cells. Bile acids stimulated GLP-1 secretion from 3.3- to 6.2-fold but some were associated with cytolytic effects. Glycocholic and taurocholic acids were selected for in vivo studies in normal and GLP-1R(-/-) mice. Oral glucose tolerance tests revealed that glycocholic acid did not affect glucose excursions. However, taurocholic acid reduced glucose excursions by 40% in normal mice and by 27% in GLP-1R(-/-) mice, and plasma GLP-1 concentrations were significantly elevated 30 min post-gavage. Additional studies used incretin receptor antagonists to probe involvement of GLP-1 and GIP in taurocholic acid-induced glucose lowering. The findings suggest that bile acids partially aid glucose regulation by physiologically enhancing nutrient-induced GLP-1 secretion. However, GLP-1 secretion appears to be only part of the glucose-lowering mechanism and our studies indicate that the other major incretin GIP is not involved.  相似文献

It has been suggested that obesity is associated with a reduced glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) response to oral carbohydrate, but not fat. The latter may, however, be attributable to changes in gastric emptying. We have assessed plasma GLP-1 levels in response to these infusions in lean and obese subjects. Seven healthy lean (body mass index (BMI), 19.1-24.6 kg/m(2)) and seven obese (BMI, 31.3-40.8 kg/m(2)) young men received an intraduodenal infusion of glucose and fat for 120 min (2.86 kcal/min) on two separate days. Blood samples for plasma GLP-1 were obtained at baseline and every 20 min during the infusion. Plasma GLP-1 increased during infusion of glucose and fat (P = 0.001), but there were no differences between lean and obese subjects, nor the two nutrients. We conclude that GLP-1 secretion in response to duodenal infusion of glucose and fat is not altered in obese subjects.  相似文献

Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is a product of proglucagon that is secreted by specialized intestinal endocrine cells after meals. GLP-1 is insulinotropic and plays a role in the incretin effect, the augmented insulin response observed when glucose is absorbed through the gut. GLP-1 also appears to regulate a number of processes that reduce fluctuations in blood glucose, such as gastric emptying, glucagon secretion, food intake, and possibly glucose production and glucose uptake. These effects, in addition to the stimulation of insulin secretion, suggest a broad role for GLP-1 as a mediator of postprandial glucose homeostasis. Consistent with this role, the most prominent effect of experimental blockade of GLP-1 signaling is an increase in blood glucose. Recent data also suggest that GLP-1 is involved in the regulation of beta-cell mass. Whereas other insulinotropic gastrointestinal hormones are relatively ineffective in stimulating insulin secretion in persons with type 2 diabetes, GLP-1 retains this action and is very effective in lowering blood glucose levels in these patients. There are currently a number of products in development that utilize the GLP-1-signaling system as a mechanism for the treatment of diabetes. These compounds, GLP-1 receptor agonists and agents that retard the metabolism of native GLP-1, have shown promising results in clinical trials. The application of GLP-1 to clinical use fulfills a long-standing interest in adapting endogenous insulinotropic hormones to the treatment of diabetes.  相似文献

Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is a gastrointestinal hormone secreted in response to meal ingestion by enteroendocrine L cells located predominantly in the lower small intestine and large intestine. GLP-1 inhibits the secretion and motility of the upper gut and has been suggested to play a role in the "ileal brake." In this study, we investigated the effect of recombinant GLP-1-(7-36) amide (rGLP-1) on lipid absorption in the small intestine in intestinal lymph duct-cannulated rats. In addition, the effects of rGLP-1 on intestinal production of apolipoprotein (apo) B and apo A-IV, two apolipoproteins closely related to lipid absorption, were evaluated. rGLP-1 was infused through the jugular vein, and lipids were infused simultaneously through a duodenal cannula. Our results showed that infusion of rGLP-1 at 20 pmol.kg(-1).min(-1) caused a dramatic and prompt decrease in lymph flow from 2.22 +/- 0.15 (SE) ml/h at baseline (n = 6) to 1.24 +/- 0.06 ml/h at 2 h (P < 0.001). In contrast, a significant increase in lymph flow was observed in the saline (control) group: 2.19 +/- 0.20 and 3.48 +/- 0.09 ml/h at baseline and at 6 h of lipid infusion, respectively (P < 0.001). rGLP-1 also inhibited intestinal triolein absorption (P < 0.05) and lymphatic apo B and apo A-IV output (P < 0.05) but did not affect cholesterol absorption. In conclusion, rGLP-1 dramatically decreases intestinal lymph flow and reduces triglyceride absorption and apo B and apo A-IV production. These findings suggest a novel role for GLP-1 in lipid absorption.  相似文献

The priming effect of glucagon-like peptide-1 (7-36) amide (GLP-1 (7-36) amide), glucose-dependent insulin-releasing polypeptide (GIP) and cholecystokinin-8 (CCK-8) on glucose-induced insulin secretion from rat pancreas was investigated. The isolated pancreas was perfused in vitro with Krebs-Ringer bicarbonate buffer containing 2.8 mmol/l glucose. After 10 min this medium was supplemented with GLP-1 (7-36) amide, GIP or CCK-8 (10, 100, 1000 pmol/l) for 10 min. After an additional 10 min period with 2.8 mmol/l glucose alone, insulin secretion was stimulated with buffer containing 10 mmol/l glucose for 44 min. In control experiments the typical biphasic insulin response to 10 mmol/l glucose occurred. Pretreatment of the pancreas with GIP augmented insulin secretion: 10 pmol/l GIP enhanced only the first phase of the secretory response to 10 mmol/l glucose; 100 and 1000 pmol/l GIP stimulated both phases of hormone secretion. After exposure to CCK-8, enhanced insulin release during the first (at 10 and 1000 pmol/l CCK-8) and the second phase (at 1000 pmol/l) was observed. Priming with 100 pmol/l GLP-1 (7-36) amide significantly amplified the first and 1000 pmol/l GLP-1 (7-36) amide both secretion periods, 10 pmol/l GLP-1 (7-36) amide had no significant effect. All three peptide hormones influenced the first, quickly arising secretory response more than the second phase. Priming with forskolin (30 mM) enhanced the secretory response to 10 mM glucose plus 0.5 nM GLP-1 (7-36) amide 4-fold. With a glucose-responsive B-cell line (HIT cells), we investigated the hypothesis that the priming effect of GLP-1 (7-36) amide is mediated by the adenylate cyclase system. Priming with either IBMX (0.1 mM) or forskolin (2.5 microM) enhanced the insulin release after a consecutive glucose stimulation (5 mM). This effect was pronounced when GLP-1 (7-36) amide (100 pM) was added during glucose stimulation. Priming capacities of intestinal peptide hormones may be involved in the regulation of postprandial insulin release. The incretin action of these hormones can probably, at least in part, be explained by these effects. The priming effect of GLP-1 (7-36) amide is most likely mediated by the adenylate cyclase system.  相似文献

The heteromeric sweet taste receptor T1R2-T1R3 is expressed on the luminal membrane of certain populations of enteroendocrine cells. Sensing of sugars and other sweet compounds by this receptor activates a pathway in enteroendocrine cells, resulting in secretion of a number of gut hormones, including glucagon-like peptide 2 (GLP-2). This subsequently leads to upregulation in the expression of intestinal Na(+)/glucose cotransporter, SGLT1, and increased intestinal glucose absorption. On the basis of the current information available on the horse genome sequence, it has been proposed that the gene for T1R2 (Tas1R2) is absent in the horse. We show here, however, that horses express both the mRNA and protein for T1R2. Equine T1R2 is most closely homologous to that in the pig and the cow. T1R2 protein, along with T1R3, α-gustducin, and GLP-2 proteins are coexpressed in equine intestinal endocrine cells. Intravenous administration of GLP-2, in rats and pigs, leads to an increase in the expression of SGLT1 in absorptive enterocytes and enhancement in blood glucose concentrations. GLP-2 receptor is expressed in enteric neurons, excluding the direct effect of GLP-2 on enterocytes. However, electric stimulation of enteric neurons generates a neural response leading to SGLT1 upregulation, suggesting that sugar in the intestine activates a reflex increase in the functional expression of SGLT1. Horses possess the ability to upregulate SGLT1 expression in response to increased dietary carbohydrates, and to enhance the capacity of the gut to absorb glucose. The gut sweet receptor provides an accessible target for manipulating the equine gut to absorb glucose (and water), allowing greater energy uptake and hydration for hard-working horses.  相似文献

Glucagon like peptide-2 (GLP-2) is a gastrointestinal hormone released from enteroendocrine L-type cells together with glucagon like peptide-1 in response to dietary nutrients. GLP-2 acts through a specific receptor, the GLP-2 receptor, mainly located in the gut and in the brain. Classically, GLP-2 is considered a trophic hormone involved in the maintenance of intestinal epithelial morphology and function. This role has been targeted for therapies promoting repair and adaptive growth of the intestinal mucosa. Recently, GLP-2 has been shown to exert beneficial effects on glucose metabolism specially in conditions related to increased uptake of energy, such as obesity. Several actions of GLP-2 are related to a positive energy balance: GLP-2 increases not only the absorptive surface, but also expression and activity of epithelial brush-border nutrient transporters and digestive enzymes, intestinal blood flow, postprandial chylomicron secretion and it inhibits gastrointestinal motility, providing the opportunity to increase absorption of nutrients. Other actions, including anorexigenic effects, appear in opposition to the energy intake. In this review, we discuss the GLP-2 functions related to energy homeostasis. GLP-2 could be considered an hormone causing positive energy balance, which, however has the role to mitigate the metabolic dysfunctions associated with hyper-adiposity.  相似文献

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) are both incretin hormones regulating postprandial insulin secretion. Their relative importance in this respect under normal physiological conditions is unclear, however, and the aim of the present investigation was to evaluate this. Eight healthy male volunteers (mean age: 23 (range 20-25) years; mean body mass index: 22.2 (range 19.3-25.4) kg/m2) participated in studies involving stepwise glucose clamping at fasting plasma glucose levels and at 6 and 7 mmol/l. Physiological amounts of either GIP (1.5 pmol/kg/min), GLP-1(7-36)amide (0.33 pmol/kg/min) or saline were infused for three periods of 30 min at each glucose level, with 1 h "washout" between the infusions. On a separate day, a standard meal test (566 kcal) was performed. During the meal test, peak insulin concentrations were observed after 30 min and amounted to 223+/-27 pmol/l. Glucose+saline infusions induced only minor increases in insulin concentrations. GLP-1 and GIP infusions induced significant and similar increases at fasting glucose levels and at 6 mmol/l. At 7 mmol/l, further increases were seen, with GLP-1 effects exceeding those of GIP. Insulin concentrations at the end of the three infusion periods (60, 150 and 240 min) during the GIP clamp amounted to 53+/-5, 79+/-8 and 113+/-15 pmol/l, respectively. Corresponding results were 47+/-7, 95+/-10 and 171+/-21 pmol/l, respectively, during the GLP-1 clamp. C-peptide responses were similar. Total and intact incretin hormone concentrations during the clamp studies were higher compared to the meal test, but within physiological limits. Glucose infusion alone significantly inhibited glucagon secretion, which was further inhibited by GLP-1 but not by GIP infusion. We conclude that during normal physiological plasma glucose levels, glucagon-like peptide-1 and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide contribute nearly equally to the incretin effect in humans, because their differences in concentration and potency outweigh each other.  相似文献

It is widely accepted that gastric parameters such as gastric distention provide a direct negative feedback signal to inhibit eating; moreover, gastric and intestinal signals have been reported to synergize to promote satiation. However, there are few human data exploring the potential interaction effects of gastric and intestinal signals in the short-term control of appetite and the secretion of satiation peptides. We performed experiments in healthy subjects receiving either a rapid intragastric load or a continuous intraduodenal infusion of glucose or a mixed liquid meal. Intraduodenal infusions (3 kcal/min) were at rates comparable with the duodenal delivery of these nutrients under physiological conditions. Intraduodenal infusions of glucose elicited only weak effects on appetite and the secretion of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and peptide YY (PYY). In contrast, identical amounts of glucose delivered intragastrically markedly suppressed appetite (P < 0.05) paralleled by greatly increased plasma levels of GLP-1 and PYY (≤3-fold, P < 0.05). Administration of the mixed liquid meal showed a comparable phenomenon. In contrast to GLP-1 and PYY, plasma ghrelin was suppressed to a similar degree with both intragastric and intraduodenal nutrients. Our data confirm that the stomach is an important element in the short-term control of appetite and suggest that gastric and intestinal signals interact to mediate early fullness and satiation potentially by increased GLP-1 and PYY secretions.  相似文献

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is released from intestinal L-cells in response to ingestion of meals. The mechanisms regulating its secretion are not clear, but local somatostatin (SS) restrains GLP-1 secretion. We investigated feedback and substrate regulation of GLP-1 and SS secretion, using isolated perfused porcine ileum (n=17). Effluents were measured for GLP-1 and SS. Perfusion pressure and motility were recorded. Investigated parameters included spontaneous fluctuations, changes in perfusate glucose concentrations (3.5, 5, 11 mM) and addition of insulin (1 nM). We also investigated the effect of proglucagon products, glucagon (10 nM), GLP-1 and GLP-2 (0.1, 1, and 10 nM) on GLP-1 and SS secretion, as well as on glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2), peptide YY (PYY) and GIP secretion, all possible product of L-cells or neighbour cells. Perfusate glucose concentration dose-dependently stimulated GLP-1 secretion (p=0.011). Insulin had no effect. Glucagon weakly stimulated GIP secretion. GLP-1 stimulated SS secretion and motor activity, but inhibited GLP-2, GIP and PYY secretion and perfusion pressure. GLP-2 weakly stimulated SS secretion. We conclude (a) that GLP-1 secretion is influenced by perfusate glucose concentration and (b) that L-cell secretion is feedback regulated by GLP-1 itself, probably via paracrine SS activity.  相似文献

The present study was undertaken to establish in normal volunteers the alterations in beta-cell responsiveness to glucose associated with a constant infusion of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) or a pretreatment infusion for 60 min. A high-dose graded glucose infusion protocol was used to explore the dose-response relationship between glucose and insulin secretion. Studies were performed in 10 normal volunteers, and insulin secretion rates (ISR) were calculated by deconvolution of peripheral C-peptide levels by use of a two-compartmental model that utilized mean kinetic parameters. During the saline study, from 5 to 15 mM glucose, the relationship between glucose and ISR was linear. Constant GLP-1 infusion (0.4 pmol x kg(-1) x min(-1)) shifted the dose-response curve to the left, with an increase in the slope of this curve from 5 to 9 mM glucose from 71.0 +/- 12.4 pmol x min(-1) x mM(-1) during the saline study to 241.7 +/- 36.6 pmol x min(-1) x mM(-1) during the constant GLP-1 infusion (P < 0.0001). GLP-1 consistently stimulated a >200% increase in ISR at each 1 mM glucose interval, maintaining plasma glucose at <10 mM (P < 0.0007). Pretreatment with GLP-1 for 60 min resulted in no significant priming of the beta-cell response to glucose (P = 0.2). Insulin clearance rates were similar in all three studies at corresponding insulin levels. These studies demonstrate that physiological levels of GLP-1 stimulate glucose-induced insulin secretion in a linear manner, with a consistent increase in ISR at each 1 mM glucose interval, and that they have no independent effect on insulin clearance and no priming effect on subsequent insulin secretory response to glucose.  相似文献

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an incretin hormone secreted from enteroendocrine L cells in response to ingested nutrients. The first recognized and most important action of GLP-1 is the potentiation of glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in beta-cells, mediated by activation of its seven transmembrane domain G-protein-coupled receptor. In addition to its insulinotropic actions, GLP-1 exerts islet-trophic effects by stimulating replication and differentiation and by decreasing apoptosis of beta-cells. The GLP-1 receptor is expressed in a variety of other tissues important for carbohydrate metabolism, including pancreatic alpha-cells, hypothalamus and brainstem, and proximal intestinal tract. GLP-1 also appears to exert important actions in liver, muscle and fat. Thus, GLP-1 suppresses glucagon secretion, promotes satiety, delays gastric emptying and stimulates peripheral glucose uptake. The impaired GLP-1 secretion observed in type 2 diabetes suggests that GLP-1 plays a role in the pathogenesis of this disorder. Thus, because of its multiple actions, GLP-1 is an attractive therapeutic target for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, and major interest has resulted in the development of a variety of GLP-1 receptor agonists for this purpose. Ongoing clinical trials have shown promising results and the first analogs of GLP-1 are expected to be available in the near future.  相似文献

Triglyceride ingestion releases gut peptides from enteroendocrine cells located in the intestinal epithelia and provides feedback regulations of gastrointestinal function. The precise mechanisms sensing lipids in the intestinal wall, however, are not well characterized. In the current study, we investigated the release of gut peptides following oral triglyceride loading in mice deficient for monoacylglycerol acyltransferase 2 (MGAT2KO) and diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1 (DGAT1KO), enzymes that sequentially re-synthesize triglyceride to secrete as chylomicron at the small intestine. In wild-type (Wt) mice, oral triglyceride loading resulted in hypertriglycemia. In addition, plasma glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and peptide YY (PYY) were significantly increased 30 min after triglyceride loading, before decaying in 2 h. In MGAT2KO and DGAT1KO mice, oral triglyceride loading did not result in hypertriglycemia and the increase in GIP was significantly suppressed in both KO mouse strains. In contrast, the increases in plasma GLP-1 and PYY in both KO mouse strains were comparable to Wt mice 30 min after triglyceride loading, however, they remained elevated in DGAT1KO mice even 2 h after triglyceride loading. In parallel to the changes in GLP-1 and PYY, gastric emptying was delayed after oral triglyceride loading in MGAT2KO mice comparably to Wt type mice and was further delayed in DGAT1KO mice. STC-1 and GLUTag, GLP-1-producing intestinal endocrine L-cell lines, displayed a significant level of DGAT1 activity but not MGAT activity. These findings suggest that synthesis and/or secretion of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins play an important role in the release of GIP. Moreover, DGAT1 may directly regulate the release of GLP-1 and PYY in L-cells.  相似文献

Glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 is secreted rapidly from the intestine postprandially. We therefore investigated its possible neural regulation. With the use of isolated perfused porcine ileum, GLP-1 secretion was measured in response to electrical stimulation of the mixed, perivascular nerve supply and infusions of neuroactive agents alone and in combination with different blocking agents. Electrical nerve stimulation inhibited GLP-1 secretion, an effect abolished by phentolamine. Norepinephrine inhibited secretion, and phentolamine abolished this effect. GLP-1 secretion was stimulated by isoproterenol (abolished by propranolol). Acetylcholine stimulated GLP-1 secretion, and atropine blocked this effect. Dimethylphenylpiperazine stimulated GLP-1 secretion. In chloralose-anesthetized pigs, however, electrical stimulation of the vagal trunks at the level of the diaphragm had no effect on GLP-1 or GLP-2 and weak effects on glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide and somatostatin secretion, although this elicited a marked atropine-resistant release of the neuropeptide vasoactive intestinal polypeptide to the portal circulation. Thus GLP-1 secretion is inhibited by the sympathetic nerves to the gut and may be stimulated by intrinsic cholinergic nerves, whereas the extrinsic vagal supply has no effect.  相似文献

IntroductionGLP-1 is secreted from the gut upon nutrient intake and stimulates insulin secretion. The lymph draining the intestine may transport high levels of GLP-1 to the systemic circulation before it is metabolized by DPP-4. The aims of this study were to investigate to what extent the lymphatic system might contribute to the final level(s) of systemic circulating intact GLP-1 and, in addition, whether secretory profiles in intestinal lymph might reflect lamina propria levels of GLP-1 i.e. before capillary uptake and degradation by endothelial dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4).Method7 pigs of the YDL-strain were catheterized in the portal vein, carotid artery and cisterna chyli (lymph). Neuromedin C (NC) was infused through an ear vein catheter, before and after injection of a selective DPP-4 inhibitor (vildagliptin). Total and intact GLP-1 levels were measured throughout the 150 min experiments using specific sandwich ELISAs. DPP-4 activity was measured spectrophotometrically.ResultsConcentrations of both total and intact GLP-1 were markedly lower in lymph compared to plasma samples, and did not increase significantly in response to stimulation with NC in the absence/presence of vildagliptin. In contrast, total and intact GLP-1 levels increased significantly in the portal vein and carotid artery. DPP-4 activity was lower in lymph than plasma, and was reduced further by vildagliptin.ConclusionOur observations indicate that the lymphatic system does not transport high levels of intact GLP-1 to the systemic circulation, and that GLP-1 levels in cisternal lymph do not reflect the hormone levels in the intestinal lamina propria.  相似文献

INTRODUCTION: Ghrelin is an orexigenic peptide predominantly secreted by the stomach. Ghrelin plasma levels rise before meal ingestion and sharply decline afterwards, but the mechanisms controlling ghrelin secretion are largely unknown. Since meal ingestion also elicits the secretion of the incretin hormone glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1), we examined whether exogenous GLP-1 administration reduces ghrelin secretion in humans. PATIENTS AND METHODS: 14 healthy male volunteers were given intravenous infusions of GLP-1(1.2 pmol x kg(-1) min(-1)) or placebo over 390 min. After 30 min, a solid test meal was served. Venous blood was drawn frequently for the determination of glucose, insulin, C-peptide, GLP-1 and ghrelin. RESULTS: During the infusion of exogenous GLP-1 and placebo, GLP-1 plasma concentrations reached steady-state levels of 139+/-15 pmol/l and 12+/-2 pmol/l, respectively (p<0.0001). During placebo infusion, ghrelin levels were significantly reduced in the immediate postprandial period (p<0.001), and rose again afterwards. GLP-1 administration prevented the initial postprandial decline in ghrelin levels, possibly as a result of delayed gastric emptying, and significantly reduced ghrelin levels 150 and 360 min after meal ingestion (p<0.05). The patterns of ghrelin concentrations in the experiments with GLP-1 and placebo administration were inversely related to the respective plasma levels of insulin and C-peptide. CONCLUSIONS: GLP-1 reduces the rise in ghrelin levels in the late postprandial period at supraphysiological plasma levels. Most likely, these effects are indirectly mediated through its insulinotropic action. The GLP-1-induced suppression of ghrelin secretion might be involved in its anorexic effects.  相似文献

It has been hypothesized that the potent insulinotropic action of the gut incretin hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is exerted not only through a direct action on the beta cells but may be partially dependent on sensory nerves. We therefore examined the influence of GLP-1 in mice rendered sensory denervated by neonatal administration of capsaicin performed at days 2 and 5 (50 mg/kg). Control mice were given vehicle. Results show that at 10-16 wk of age in control mice, intravenous GLP-1 at 0.1 or 10 nmol/kg augmented the insulin response to intravenous glucose (1 g/kg) in association with improved glucose elimination. In contrast, in capsaicin-pretreated mice, GLP-1 at 0.1 nmol/kg could not augment the insulin response to intravenous glucose and no effect on glucose elimination was observed. Nevertheless, at the high dose of 10 nmol/kg, GLP-1 augmented the insulin response to glucose in capsaicin-pretreated mice as efficiently as in control mice. The insulin response to GLP-1 from isolated islets was not affected by neonatal capsaicin, and, furthermore, the in vivo insulin response to glucose was augmented whereas that to arginine was not affected by capsaicin. It is concluded that GLP-1-induced insulin secretion at a low dose in mice is dependent on intact sensory nerves and therefore indirectly mediated and that this distinguishes GLP-1 from other examined insulin secretagogues.  相似文献
