Abstract
Obesity is a risk factor for cardiometabolic diseases. Nutrients stimulate GLP-1 release; however, GLP-1 has a short half-life (<2 min), and only <10-15% reaches the systemic circulation. Human L-cells are localized in the distal ileum and colon, while most nutrients are absorbed in the proximal intestine. We hypothesized that combinations of amino acids and fatty acids potentiate GLP-1 release via different L-cell receptors. GLP-1 secretion was studied in the mouse enteroendocrine STC-1 cells. Cells were pre-incubated with buffer for 1 h and treated with nutrients: alpha-linolenic acid (αLA), phenylalanine (Phe), tryptophan (Trp), and their combinations αLA+Phe and αLA+Trp with dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP4) inhibitor. After 1 h GLP-1 in supernatants was measured and cell lysates taken for qPCR. αLA (12.5 µM) significantly stimulated GLP-1 secretion compared with the control. Phe (6.25-25 mM) and Trp (2.5-10 mM) showed a clear dose response for GLP-1 secretion. The combination of αLA (6.25 µM) and either Phe (12.5 mM) or Trp (5 mM) significantly increased GLP-1 secretion compared with αLA, Phe, or Trp individually. The combination of αLA and Trp upregulated GPR120 expression and potentiated GLP-1 secretion. These nutrient combinations could be used in sustained-delivery formulations to the colon to prolong GLP-1 release for diminishing appetite and preventing obesity.
