Intraduodenal calcium enhances the effects of L-tryptophan to stimulate gut hormone secretion and suppress energy intake in healthy males: a randomized, crossover, clinical trial. Am J Clin Nutr 2024:S0002-9165(24)00602-6. [PMID: 38996913 DOI: 10.1016/j.ajcnut.2024.07.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2024] [Revised: 06/05/2024] [Accepted: 07/08/2024] [Indexed: 07/14/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND In humans, intraduodenal infusion of L-tryptophan (Trp) increases plasma concentrations of gastrointestinal hormones and stimulates pyloric pressures, both key determinants of gastric emptying and associated with potent suppression of energy intake. The stimulation of gastrointestinal hormones by Trp has been shown, in preclinical studies, to be enhanced by extracellular calcium and mediated in part by the calcium-sensing receptor. OBJECTIVES This study aim was to determine whether intraduodenal calcium can enhance the effects of Trp to stimulate gastrointestinal hormones and pyloric pressures and, if so, whether it is associated with greater suppression of energy intake, in healthy males. METHODS Fifteen males with normal weight (mean ± standard deviation; age: 26 ± 7 years; body mass index: 22 ± 2 kg/m2), received on 3 separate occasions, 150-min intraduodenal infusions of 0, 500, or 1000 mg calcium (Ca), each combined with Trp (load: 0.1 kcal/min, with submaximal energy intake-suppressant effects) from t = 75-150 min, in a randomized, double-blind, crossover study. Plasma concentrations of GI hormones [gastrin, cholecystokinin, glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1, and peptide tyrosine-tyrosine (PYY)], and Trp and antropyloroduodenal pressures were measured throughout. Immediately postinfusions (t = 150-180 min), energy intake at a standardized buffet-style meal was quantified. RESULTS In response to calcium alone, both 500- and 1000-mg doses stimulated PYY, while only the 1000-mg dose stimulated GLP-1 and pyloric pressures (all P < 0.05). The 1000-mg dose also enhanced the effects of Trp to stimulate cholecystokinin and GLP-1, and both doses stimulated PYY but, surprisingly, reduced the stimulation of GIP (all P < 0.05). Both doses substantially and dose dependently enhanced the effects of Trp to suppress energy intake (Ca-0+Trp: 1108 ± 70 kcal; Ca-500+Trp: 961 ± 90 kcal; and Ca-1000+Trp: 922 ± 96 kcal; P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Intraduodenal administration of calcium enhances the effect of Trp to stimulate plasma cholecystokinin, GLP-1, and PYY and suppress energy intake in healthy males. These findings have potential implications for novel nutrient-based approaches to energy intake regulation in obesity. The trial was registered at the Australian New Zealand Clinical Trial Registry (www.anzctr.org.au) as ACTRN12620001294943).

The Effects of a High-Carbohydrate versus a High-Fat Shake on Biomarkers of Metabolism and Glycemic Control When Used to Interrupt a 38-h Fast: A Randomized Crossover Study. Nutrients 2024; 16:164. [PMID: 38201992 PMCID: PMC10780935 DOI: 10.3390/nu16010164] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2023] [Revised: 12/28/2023] [Accepted: 01/02/2024] [Indexed: 01/12/2024] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to determine the impact of various fast-interrupting shakes on markers of glycemic control including glucose, β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB), insulin, glucagon, GLP-1, and GIP. Twenty-seven sedentary adults (twelve female, fifteen male) with overweight or obesity completed this study. One condition consisted of a 38-h water-only fast, and the other two conditions repeated this, but the fasts were interrupted at 24 h by either a high carbohydrate/low fat (HC/LF) shake or an isovolumetric and isocaloric low carbohydrate/high fat (LC/HF) shake. The water-only fast resulted in 135.3% more BHB compared to the HC/LF condition (p < 0.01) and 69.6% more compared to the LC/HF condition (p < 0.01). The LC/HF condition exhibited a 38.8% higher BHB level than the HC/LF condition (p < 0.01). The area under the curve for glucose was 14.2% higher in the HC/LF condition than in the water condition (p < 0.01) and 6.9% higher compared to the LC/HF condition (p < 0.01), with the LC/HF condition yielding 7.8% more glucose than the water condition (p < 0.01). At the 25-h mark, insulin and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) were significantly elevated in the HC/LF condition compared to the LC/HF condition (p < 0.01 and p = 0.02, respectively) and compared to the water condition (p < 0.01). Furthermore, insulin, GLP-1, and GIP were increased in the LC/HF condition compared to the water condition at 25 h (p < 0.01, p = 0.015, and p < 0.01, respectively). By the 38-h time point, no differences were observed among the conditions for any of the analyzed hormones. While a LC/HF shake does not mimic a fast completely, it does preserve some of the metabolic changes including elevated BHB and glucagon, and decreased glucose and insulin compared to a HC/LF shake, implying a potential for improved metabolic health.

Abstract
Despite recent advancements in the field of neuro-ophthalmology, the rising rates of neurological and ophthalmological conditions, mismatches between supply and demand of clinicians, and an aging population underscore the urgent need to explore new therapeutic approaches within the field. Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs), traditionally used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes, are becoming increasingly appreciated for their diverse applications. Recently, GLP-1RAs have been approved for the treatment of obesity and recognized for their cardioprotective effects. Emerging evidence indicates some GLP-1RAs can cross the blood-brain barrier and may have neuroprotective effects. Therefore, this article aims to review the literature on the neurologic and neuro-ophthalmic role of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1). This article describes GLP-1 peptide characteristics and the mechanisms mediating its known role in increasing insulin, decreasing glucagon, delaying gastric emptying, and promoting satiety. This article identifies the sources and targets of GLP-1 in the brain and review the mechanisms which mediate its neuroprotective effects, as well as implications for Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD). Furthermore, the preclinical works which unravel the effects of GLP-1 in ocular dynamics and the preclinical literature regarding GLP-1RA use in the management of several neuro-ophthalmic conditions, including diabetic retinopathy (DR), glaucoma, and idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) are discussed.

N-terminal alterations turn the gut hormone GLP-2 into an antagonist with gradual loss of GLP-2 receptor selectivity towards more GLP-1 receptor interaction. Br J Pharmacol 2022; 179:4473-4485. [PMID: 35523760 PMCID: PMC9541843 DOI: 10.1111/bph.15866] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2021] [Revised: 02/21/2022] [Accepted: 03/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE To fully elucidate the regulatory role of the GLP-2 system in the gut and the bones, potent and selective GLP-2 receptor (GLP-2R) antagonists are needed. Searching for antagonist activity, we performed systematic N-terminal truncations of human GLP-2(1-33). EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH COS-7 cells were transfected with the human GLP-2R and assessed for cAMP accumulation or competition binding using 125 I-GLP-2(1-33)[M10Y]. To examine selectivity, human GLP-1 or GIP receptor expressing COS-7 cells were assessed for cAMP accumulation. KEY RESULTS The affinity for the GLP-2R of the N-terminally truncated GLP-2 peptides decreased with reduced N-terminal peptide length (Ki 6.5-871 nM), while increasing antagonism appeared with inhibitory potencies (IC50 ) values from 79 to 204 nM for truncation up to GLP-2(4-33) and then declined. In contrast, truncation-dependent increases in intrinsic activity were observed from an Emax of only 20% for GLP-(2-33) up to 46% for GLP-2(6-33) at 1 μM, followed by a decline. GLP-2(9-33) had the highest intrinsic efficacy (Emax 65%) and no antagonistic properties. Moreover, with truncations up to GLP-2(8-33) a gradual loss in selectivity for the GLP-2R appeared with increasing GLP-1 receptor (GLP-1R) inhibition (up to 73% at 1 μM). Lipidation of the peptides improved antagonism (IC50 down to 7.9 nM) for both the GLP-2R and the GLP-1R. CONCLUSION AND IMPLICATIONS The N-terminus of GLP-2 is crucial for GLP-2R activity and selectivity. Our observations form the basis for the development of tool compounds for further characterization of the GLP-2 system.

Abstract
Exocrine glands in the submucosa of the proximal duodenum secrete alkaline fluid containing mucus to protect the intestinal mucosa from acidic stomach contents. These glands, known as Brunner's gland, express high glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor (GLP-1R) levels. Previous studies have suggested that activation of the GLP-1R induces expression of barrier protective genes in Brunner's glands. Still, the lack of a viable in vitro culture of Brunner's glands has hampered additional studies of the functional consequences of GLP-1R activation. In this study, we established a procedure to isolate and culture cells derived from murine Brunner's glands. The isolated glandular cells retained functional GLP-1R expression in culture, making this in vitro system suitable for the study of GLP-1R activation. We found that cells derived from the Brunner's glands of mice pre-treated with semaglutide contained significantly more mucus compared to Brunner's glands from vehicle-treated mice. Our data suggest a protective intestinal response upon semaglutide treatment, but further studies are required to leverage the full potential of cultured Brunner's gland cells.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In this review, we evaluate recent findings related to the association between gastrointestinal hormones and regulation of gastric emptying. RECENT FINDINGS Motilin and ghrelin, which act during fasting, promote gastric motility, whereas most of the hormones secreted after a meal inhibit gastric motility. Serotonin has different progastric or antigastric motility effects depending on the receptor subtype. Serotonin receptor agonists have been used clinically to treat dyspepsia symptoms but other hormone receptor agonists or antagonists are still under development. Glucagon-like peptide 1 agonists, which have gastric motility and appetite-suppressing effects are used as a treatment for obesity and diabetes. SUMMARY Gastrointestinal hormones play an important role in the regulation of gastric motility. Various drugs have been developed to treat delayed gastric emptying by targeting gastrointestinal hormones or their receptors but few have been commercialized.

Abstract
Incretin hormones play an important role in the regulation of glucose homeostasis through their actions on the beta cells and other tissues. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) are the two main incretins and are secreted by enteroendocrine L- and K-cells, respectively. New evidence suggests that incretin hormones, particularly GLP-1, play a role in the pathophysiology of hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia. In individuals with acquired hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia after gastrointestinal surgery, including Nissen fundoplication and gastric bypass surgery, the incretin response to a meal is markedly increased and antagonism of the GLP-1 receptor prevents the hyperinsulinemic response. In individuals with congenital hyperinsulinism due to inactivating mutations in the genes encoding the beta cell KATP channels, the GLP-1 receptor antagonist, exendin-(9-39), increases fasting plasma glucose and prevents protein-induced hypoglycemia. Studies in human and mouse islets lacking functional KATP channels have demonstrated that the effect on plasma glucose is at least in part mediated by inhibition of insulin secretion resulting from lower cytoplasmic cAMP levels. The understanding of the role of incretin hormones in the pathophysiology of hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia is important for the exploration of the GLP-1 receptor as a therapeutic target for these conditions. In this article, we will review incretin physiology and evidence supporting a role of the incretin hormones in the pathophysiology of hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia, as well as results from proof-of concept studies exploring a therapeutic approach targeting the GLP-1 receptor to treat hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Neurotensin (NT) is released from enteroendocrine cells and lowers food intake in rodents. We evaluated postprandial NT secretion in humans after surgeries associated with accelerated small intestinal nutrient delivery, and after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) when glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) signalling and dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) were inhibited, and during pharmacological treatments influencing entero-pancreatic functions. METHODS We measured NT concentrations in plasma from meal studies: (I) after truncal vagotomy with pyloroplasty (TVP), cardia resection +TVP (CTVP), and matched controls (n = 10); (II) after RYGB, sleeve gastrectomy (SG), and in matched controls (n = 12); (III) after RYGB (n = 11) with antagonism of GLP-1 signalling using exendin(9-39) and DPP-4 inhibition using sitagliptin; (IV) after RYGB (n = 11) during a run-in period and subsequent treatment with, sitagliptin, liraglutide (GLP-1 receptor agonist), verapamil (calcium antagonist), acarbose (alpha glucosidase inhibitor), and pasireotide (somatostatin analogue), respectively. RESULTS (I) NT secretion was similar after TVP/CTVP (p = 0.9), but increased vs. controls (p < 0.0001). (II) NT secretion was increased after RYGB vs. SG and controls (p < 0.0001). NT responses were similar in SG and controls (p = 0.3), but early postprandial NT concentrations were higher after SG (p < 0.05). (III) Exendin (9-39) and sitagliptin did not change NT responses vs placebo (p > 0.2), but responses were lower during sitagliptin vs. exendin(9-39) (p = 0.03). (IV) Pasireotide suppressed NT secretion (p = 0.004). Sitagliptin tended to lower NT secretion (p = 0.08). Liraglutide, verapamil, and acarbose had no effect (p > 0.9). CONCLUSION Neurotensin secretion is increased after surgeries associated with accelerated gastric emptying and lowered by pasireotide.

[PMID: 34351033 DOI: 10.1111/dom.14507] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2021] [Revised: 07/23/2021] [Accepted: 07/28/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022]
Abstract
AIM To present an overview of exendin(9-39)NH2 usage as a scientific tool in humans and provide recommendations for dosage and infusion regimes. METHODS We systematically searched the literature on exendin(9-39)NH2 and included for review 44 clinical studies reporting use of exendin(9-39)NH2 in humans. RESULTS Exendin(9-39)NH2 binds to the orthosteric binding site of the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor with high affinity. The plasma elimination half-life of exendin(9-39)NH2 after intravenous administration is ~30 minutes, requiring ~2.5 hours of constant infusion before steady-state plasma concentrations can be expected. Studies utilizing infusions with exendin(9-39)NH2 in humans have applied varying regimens (priming with a bolus or constant infusion) and dosages (continuous infusion rate range 30-900 pmol/kg/min) with subsequent differences in effects. Administration of exendin(9-39)NH2 in healthy individuals, patients with diabetes, obese patients, and patients who have undergone bariatric surgery significantly increases fasting and postprandial levels of glucose and glucagon, but has inconsistent effects on circulating concentrations of insulin and C-peptide, gastric emptying, appetite sensations, and food intake. Importantly, exendin(9-39)NH2 induces secretion of all L cell products (ie, in addition to GLP-1, also peptide YY, glucagon-like peptide-2, oxyntomodulin, and glicentin) complicating use of exendin(9-39)NH2 as a tool to study the isolated effect of GLP-1. CONCLUSIONS Exendin(9-39)NH2 is selective for the GLP-1 receptor, with numerous and complex whole-body effects. To obtain GLP-1 receptor blockade in humans, we recommend an initial high-dose infusion, followed by a continuous infusion rate aiming at a ratio of exendin(9-39)NH2 to GLP-1 of 2000:1. Highlights Exendin(9-39)NH2 is a competitive antagonist of the human GLP-1 receptor. Exendin(9-39)NH2 has been used as a tool to delineate human GLP-1 physiology since 1998. Exendin(9-39)NH2 induces secretion of GLP-1 and other L cell products. Reported effects of exendin(9-39)NH2 on insulin levels and food intake are inconsistent. Here, we provide recommendations for the use of exendin(9-39)NH2 in clinical studies.

Abstract
Blood glucose homeostasis requires proper function of pancreatic islets, which secrete insulin, glucagon, and somatostatin from the β-, α-, and δ-cells, respectively. Each islet cell type is equipped with intrinsic mechanisms for glucose sensing and secretory actions, but these intrinsic mechanisms alone cannot explain the observed secretory profiles from intact islets. Regulation of secretion involves interconnected mechanisms among and between islet cell types. Islet cells lose their normal functional signatures and secretory behaviors upon dispersal as compared to intact islets and in vivo. In dispersed islet cells, the glucose response of insulin secretion is attenuated from that seen from whole islets, coordinated oscillations in membrane potential and intracellular Ca2+ activity, as well as the two-phase insulin secretion profile, are missing, and glucagon secretion displays higher basal secretion profile and a reverse glucose-dependent response from that of intact islets. These observations highlight the critical roles of intercellular communication within the pancreatic islet, and how these communication pathways are crucial for proper hormonal and nonhormonal secretion and glucose homeostasis. Further, misregulated secretions of islet secretory products that arise from defective intercellular islet communication are implicated in diabetes. Intercellular communication within the islet environment comprises multiple mechanisms, including electrical synapses from gap junctional coupling, paracrine interactions among neighboring cells, and direct cell-to-cell contacts in the form of juxtacrine signaling. In this article, we describe the various mechanisms that contribute to proper islet function for each islet cell type and how intercellular islet communications are coordinated among the same and different islet cell types. © 2021 American Physiological Society.

Abstract
The gastrointestinal tract can assess the nutrient composition of ingested food. The nutrient-sensing mechanisms in specialised epithelial cells lining the gastrointestinal tract, the enteroendocrine cells, trigger the release of gut hormones that provide important local and central feedback signals to regulate nutrient utilisation and feeding behaviour. The evidence for nutrient-stimulated secretion of two of the most studied gut hormones, glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), along with the known cellular mechanisms in enteroendocrine cells recruited by nutrients, will be the focus of this review. The mechanisms involved range from electrogenic transporters, ion channel modulation and nutrient-activated G-protein coupled receptors that converge on the release machinery controlling hormone secretion. Elucidation of these mechanisms will provide much needed insight into postprandial physiology and identify tractable dietary approaches to potentially manage nutrition and satiety by altering the secreted gut hormone profile.

Abstract
The processing of proglucagon in intestinal L cells results in the formation of glucagon, GLP-1, and GLP-2. The GLP-1 molecule becomes active through the effect of proconvertase 1, and it is inactivated by dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV), so that the half-life of endogenous GLP-1 is 2-3 min. GLP-1 stimulates insulin secretion from β cells in the islets of Langerhans. Human studies show that infusion of GLP-1 results in slowing of gastric emptying and increased fasting and postprandial gastric volumes. Retardation of gastric emptying reduces postprandial glycemia. Exendin-4 is a peptide agonist of the GLP-1 receptor that promotes insulin secretion. Chemical modifications of exendin-4 and GLP-1 molecules have been accomplished to prolong the half-life of GLP-1 agonists or analogs. This chapter reviews the effects of GLP-1-related drugs used in treatment of diabetes or obesity on gastric motor functions, chiefly gastric emptying. The literature shows that diverse methods have been used to measure effects of the GLP-1-related drugs on gastric emptying, with most studies using the acetaminophen absorption test which essentially measures gastric emptying of liquids during the first hour and capacity to absorb the drug over 4-6 h, expressed as AUC. The most valid measurements by scintigraphy (solids or liquids) and acetaminophen absorption at 30 or 60 min show that GLP-1-related drugs used in diabetes or obesity retard gastric emptying, and this is associated with reduced glycemia and variable effects on food intake and appetite. GLP-1 agonists and analogs are integral to the management of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity. The effects on gastric emptying are reduced with long-acting preparations or long-term use of short-acting preparations as a result of tachyphylaxis. The dual agonists targeting GLP-1 and another receptor (GIP) do not retard gastric emptying, based on reports to date. In summary, GLP-1 agonists and analogs are integral to the management of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity, and their effects are mediated, at least in part, by retardation of gastric emptying.

Abstract
Background: Obesity causes significant morbidity and mortality and continues to be a significant public health concern. Unfortunately, lifestyle modification and pharmacotherapy do not produce durable results. This has led to bariatric surgical procedures playing an increasingly prominent role in the management of medically complicated obesity. Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy are the most commonly performed bariatric surgeries in North America and produce mechanical restriction with accelerated gastrointestinal transit accompanied by increased postprandial secretion of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). GLP-1 is a gastrointestinal hormone that delays gastric emptying and causes satiety and weight loss. This raises the possibility that the postprandial rise in GLP-1 might affect feeding behavior over and above the mechanical restriction produced by bariatric surgery. Methods: We, therefore, sought to determine the effects of GLP-1 receptor blockade using exendin-9,39-a competitive antagonist of the actions of GLP-1 at its receptor-on caloric intake and gastrointestinal transit in subjects after sleeve gastrectomy and after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass compared with weight-matched controls. Results: GLP-1 receptor blockade did not alter caloric intake in people after bariatric surgery. However, caloric intake was decreased in age-, weight- and sex-matched control subjects, and the mechanisms require further study. Conclusions: Given the known effects of GLP-1 on gastric accommodation, future studies should ascertain effects of GLP-1 receptor blockade on gastric accommodation, which might be a useful and novel strategy to decrease caloric intake in humans with an intact upper gastrointestinal tract. The Clinical Trial Resigtration number is NCT02779075.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bariatric surgery is an effective treatment for type 2 diabetes. Early post-surgical enhancement of insulin secretion is key for diabetes remission. The full complement of mechanisms responsible for improved pancreatic beta cell functionality after bariatric surgery is still unclear. Our aim was to identify pathways, evident in the islet transcriptome, that characterize the adaptive response to bariatric surgery independently of body weight changes. METHODS We performed entero-gastro-anastomosis (EGA) with pyloric ligature in leptin-deficient ob/ob mice as a surrogate of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) in humans. Multiple approaches such as determination of glucose tolerance, GLP-1 and insulin secretion, whole body insulin sensitivity, ex vivo glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) and functional multicellular Ca2+-imaging, profiling of mRNA and of miRNA expression were utilized to identify significant biological processes involved in pancreatic islet recovery. FINDINGS EGA resolved diabetes, increased pancreatic insulin content and GSIS despite a persistent increase in fat mass, systemic and intra-islet inflammation, and lipotoxicity. Surgery differentially regulated 193 genes in the islet, most of which were involved in the regulation of glucose metabolism, insulin secretion, calcium signaling or beta cell viability, and these were normalized alongside changes in glucose metabolism, intracellular Ca2+ dynamics and the threshold for GSIS. Furthermore, 27 islet miRNAs were differentially regulated, four of them hubs in a miRNA-gene interaction network and four others part of a blood signature of diabetes resolution in ob/ob mice and in humans. INTERPRETATION Taken together, our data highlight novel miRNA-gene interactions in the pancreatic islet during the resolution of diabetes after bariatric surgery that form part of a blood signature of diabetes reversal.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) has been suggested to stimulate the secretion of pancreatic polypeptide (PP), an islet hormone thought to regulate gut motility, appetite, and glycemia. OBJECTIVE To determine whether human GIP1-42 (hGIP) stimulates PP secretion. METHOD As glycemia modulates the secretion of PP, we measured plasma PP concentrations from 2 studies in healthy men (n = 10) and in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) (n = 12), where hGIP1-42 had been administered intravenously during fasting glycemia, hyperglycemia (12 mmol/L), and insulin-induced hypoglycemia (targets: 2.5 mmol/L [healthy]; 3.5 mmol/L [T2D]). Porcine GIP1-42 (pGIP) was also infused intra-arterially in isolated porcine pancreata (n = 4). RESULTS Mean fasting plasma glucose concentrations were approximately 5 mmol/L (healthy) and approximately 8 mmol/L (T2D). At fasting glycemia, PP concentrations were higher during intravenous hGIP1-42 infusion compared with saline in healthy men (mean [standard error of the mean, SEM], net incremental areas under the curves (iAUCs)[0-30min], 403 [116] vs -6 [57] pmol/L × min; P = 0.004) and in patients with T2D (905 [177] vs -96 [86] pmol/L × min; P = 0.009). During hyperglycemic clamping, mean [SEM] PP concentrations were significantly higher during hGIP1-42 infusion compared with saline in patients with T2D (771 [160] vs -183 [117] pmol/L × min; P = 0.001), but not in healthy individuals (-8 [86] vs -57 [53] pmol/L × min; P = 0.69). When plasma glucose levels were declining in response to exogenous insulin, mean [SEM] PP concentrations were higher during hGIP1-42 infusion compared with saline in healthy individuals (294 [88] vs -82 [53] pmol/L × min; P = 0.0025), but not significantly higher in patients with T2D (586 [314] vs -120 [53]; P = 0.070). At target hypoglycemia, PP levels surged in both groups during both hGIP1-42 and saline infusions. In isolated pancreata, pGIP1-42 increased mean [SEM] PP output in the pancreatic venous effluent (baseline vs infusion, 24[5] vs 79 [16] pmol/min x min; P = 0.044). CONCLUSION GIP1-42 increases plasma PP secretion in healthy individuals, patients with T2D, and isolated porcine pancreata. Hyperglycemia blunts the stimulatory effect of hGIP1-42 in healthy individuals, but not in patients with T2D.

Abstract
Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) potentiate glucose-induced insulin secretion and are therefore thought to be responsible for the incretin effect. The magnitude of the incretin effect, defined as the fraction of postprandial insulin secretion stimulated by intestinal factors, has been reported to be up to ∼60% in healthy individuals. In several pathological conditions but especially in patients with type 2 diabetes, the incretin effect is severely reduced or even absent. In line with this, the insulinotropic effects of GIP and GLP-1 are impaired in patients with type 2 diabetes, even when administered in supraphysiological doses. In healthy individuals, GIP has been proposed to be the most important incretin hormone of the two, but the individual contribution of the two is difficult to determine. However, using incretin hormone receptor antagonists: the novel GIP receptor antagonist GIP(3-30)NH2 and the widely used GLP-1 receptor antagonist exendin(9-39)NH2, we can now distinguish between the effects of the two hormones. In this review, we present and discuss studies in which the individual contribution of GIP and GLP-1 to the incretin effect in healthy individuals have been estimated and discuss the limitations of using incretin hormone receptor antagonists.

Abstract
CONTEXT Delayed gastric emptying (GE) is common but often asymptomatic in diabetes. The relationship between symptoms, glycemia, and neurohormonal functions, including glucagonlike peptide 1 (GLP-1), are unclear. OBJECTIVES To assess whether GE disturbances, symptoms during a GE study, and symptoms during enteral lipid infusion explain daily symptoms and whether GLP-1 mediates symptoms during enteral lipid infusion. DESIGN In this randomized controlled trial, GE, enteral lipid infusion, gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms during these assessments, autonomic functions, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), and daily GI symptoms (2-week Gastroparesis Cardinal Symptom Index diary) were evaluated. During enteral lipid infusion, participants received the GLP-1 antagonist exendin 9-39 or placebo. SETTING Single tertiary referral center. PARTICIPANTS 24 healthy controls and 40 patients with diabetic gastroenteropathy. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES GE, symptoms during enteral lipid infusion, and the effect of exendin 9-39 on the latter. RESULTS In patients, GE was normal (55%), delayed (33%), or rapid (12%). During lipid infusion, GI symptoms tended to be greater (P = 0.06) in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) than controls; exendin 9-39 did not affect symptoms. The HbA1c was inversely correlated with the mean symptom score during the GE study (r = -0.46, P = 0.003) and lipid infusion (r = -0.47, P < 0.01). GE and symptoms during GE study accounted for 40% and 32%, respectively, of the variance in daily symptom severity and quality of life. CONCLUSIONS In DM gastroenteropathy, GE and symptoms during a GE study explain daily symptoms. Symptoms during enteral lipid infusion were borderline increased but not reduced by a GLP-1 antagonist.

Abstract
The incretin hormones glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) are secreted postprandially and contribute importantly to postprandial glucose tolerance. In this study, we assessed the individual and combined contributions of endogenous GIP and GLP-1 to the postprandial changes in glucose and glucoregulatory hormones using the novel GIP receptor antagonist GIP(3-30)NH2 and the well-established GLP-1 receptor antagonist exendin(9-39)NH2 During 4-h oral glucose tolerance tests (75 g) combined with an ad libitum meal test, 18 healthy men received on four separate days in randomized, double-blinded order intravenous infusions of A) GIP(3-30)NH2 (800 pmol/kg/min) plus exendin(9-39)NH2 (0-20 min: 1,000 pmol/kg/min; 20-240 min: 450 pmol/kg/min), B) GIP(3-30)NH2, C) exendin(9-39)NH2, and D) saline, respectively. Glucose excursions were significantly higher during A than during B, C, and D, while glucose excursions during B were higher than during C and D. Insulin secretion (assessed by C-peptide/glucose ratio) was reduced by 37 ± 16% (A), 30 ± 17% (B), and 8.6 ± 16% (C) compared with D (mean ± SD). A and C resulted in higher glucagon levels and faster gastric emptying. In conclusion, endogenous GIP affects postprandial plasma glucose excursions and insulin secretion more than endogenous GLP-1, but the hormones contribute additively to postprandial glucose regulation in healthy individuals.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an insulin secretagogue which is elevated after Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB). However, its contribution to glucose metabolism after RYGB remains uncertain. AIMS We tested the hypothesis that GLP-1 lowers postprandial glucose concentrations and improves β-cell function after RYGB. MATERIALS AND METHODS To address these questions we used a labeled mixed meal to assess glucose metabolism and islet function in 12 obese subjects with type 2 diabetes studied before and four weeks after RYGB. During the post-RYGB study subjects were randomly assigned to receive an infusion of either saline or Exendin-9,39 a competitive antagonist of GLP-1 at its receptor. Exendin-9,39 was infused at 300 pmol/kg/min for 6 h. All subjects underwent RYGB for medically-complicated obesity. RESULTS Exendin-9,39 resulted in increased integrated incremental postprandial glucose concentrations (181 ± 154 vs. 582 ± 129 mmol per 6 h, p = 0.02). In contrast, this was unchanged in the presence of saline (275 ± 88 vs. 315 ± 66 mmol per 6 h, p = 0.56) after RYGB. Exendin-9,39 also impaired β-cell responsivity to glucose but did not alter Disposition Index (DI). CONCLUSIONS These data indicate that the elevated GLP-1 concentrations that occur early after RYGB improve postprandial glucose tolerance by enhancing postprandial insulin secretion.

Randomised clinical trial: the DPP-4 inhibitor, vildagliptin, inhibits gastric accommodation and increases glucagon-like peptide-1 plasma levels in healthy volunteers. Aliment Pharmacol Ther 2019; 49:997-1004.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inactivates glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). Whether DPP-4 inhibition affects GLP-1 metabolism and/or food intake in humans remains unknown. AIMS To evaluate the effect of vildagliptin (DPP-4 inhibitor) on gastric accommodation and ad libitum food intake in healthy volunteers (HVs) METHODS: The effects of acute oral vildagliptin administration (50 mg) were evaluated in two randomised, placebo-controlled, single-blinded trials. Protocol 1 (n = 10, 32.3 ± 3 years, 23.4 ± 0.7 kg/m2 ): 60 min after treatment, a nutrient drink (270 kcal) was infused intragastrically and intragastric pressure (IGP) was measured for 1 h. Protocol 2 (n = 10, 24.3 ± 0.8 years, 22.3 ± 0.9 kg/m2 ): 60 min after treatment, HVs consumed one nutrient drink (300 kcal). Thirty minutes thereafter, HVs ate ad libitum from a free-choice buffet for 30 min. Blood was collected at several time points to measure active GLP-1 plasma levels. RESULTS During the first 20 min after nutrient infusion, the drop in IGP was smaller after vildagliptin compared to placebo (treatment-by-time interaction effect: P = 0.008). No differences were seen on epigastric symptom scores. Planned contrast analysis showed that active GLP-1 levels were higher after vildagliptin compared to placebo (P = 0.018) only after nutrient ingestion. Total food intake (316.38 ± 58.89 g vs 399.58 ± 63.02 g, P = 0.359) and total caloric intake (594.77 ± 115.17 kcal vs 742.77 ± 107.10 kcal, P = 0.371) did not differ between treatments. CONCLUSIONS Vildagliptin inhibits gastric accommodation without affecting epigastric symptom scoring in HVs. Active GLP-1 plasma levels were increased after vildagliptin treatment, but the increase was not sufficient to affect ad libitum food intake. The study was registered at Clincialtrials.gov (NCT 03500900).

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review examines the hormonal regulation of gastric emptying, a topic of increasing relevance, given the fact that medications that are analogs of some of these hormones or act as agonists at the hormonal receptors, are used in clinical practice for optimizing metabolic control in the treatment of type 2 diabetes and in obesity. RECENT FINDINGS The major effects on gastric emptying result from actions of incretins, particularly gastric inhibitory polypeptide, glucagon-like peptide-1, and peptide tyrosine-tyrosine, the duodenal and pancreatic hormones, motilin, glucagon, and amylin, and the gastric orexigenic hormones, ghrelin and motilin. All of these hormones delay gastric emptying, except for ghrelin and motilin which accelerate gastric emptying. These effects on gastric emptying parallel the effects of the hormones on satiation (by those retarding emptying) and increase appetite by those that accelerate emptying. Indeed, in addition to the effects of these hormones on hypothalamic appetite centers and glycemic control, there is evidence that some of their biological effects are mediated through actions on the stomach, particularly with the glucagon-like peptide-1 analogs or agonists used in treating obesity. SUMMARY Effects of gastrointestinal hormones on gastric emptying are increasingly recognized as important mediators of satiation and postprandial glycemic control.

Abstract
The insulinotropic effects of the incretin hormone, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) are mediated via GLP-1 receptors (GLP-1R) present on pancreatic β cells. GLP-1 causes a decrease in the motility of stomach and intestine which involves both central and peripheral nervous systems. The expression and function of GLP-1R in gastrointestinal smooth muscle, however, are not clear. Muscle strips and isolated muscle cells were prepared from mouse colon and the effect of GLP-1(7-36) amide on acetylcholine (ACh)-induced contraction was measured. Muscle cells in culture were used to identify the expression of GLP-1R and the signaling pathways activated by GLP-1(7-36) amide. GLP-1R was expressed in the mucosal and non-mucosal tissue preparations derived from colon, and in smooth muscle cell cultures devoid of other cells such as enteric neurons. In colonic muscle strips, the addition of GLP-1(7-36) amide caused dose-dependent inhibition of acetylcholine-induced contractions. The effect of GLP-1(7-36) amide was partly inhibited by the neuronal blocker tetrodotoxin and nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor l-NNA suggesting both NO-dependent neural and NO-independent direct effects on smooth muscle. In isolated colonic smooth muscle cells, GLP-1(7-36) amide caused an increase in Gαs activity, cAMP levels, and PKA activity, and inhibited ACh-induced contraction. The effect of GLP-1(7-36) amide on Gαs activity and cAMP levels was blocked by NF449, an inhibitor of Gαs, and the effect of GLP-1(7-36) amide on contraction was blocked by NF449 and myristoylated PKI, an inhibitor of PKA. We conclude that colonic smooth muscle cells express GLP-1R, and GLP-1(7-36) amide inhibits acetylcholine-induced contraction via GLP-1R coupled to the Gαs/cAMP/PKA pathway.

Abstract
The incretin hormone Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) is best known for its "incretin effect" in restoring glucose homeostasis in diabetics, however, it is now apparent that it has a broader range of physiological effects in the body. Both in vitro and in vivo studies have demonstrated that GLP-1 mimetics alleviate endoplasmic reticulum stress, regulate autophagy, promote metabolic reprogramming, stimulate anti-inflammatory signaling, alter gene expression, and influence neuroprotective pathways. A substantial body of evidence has accumulated with respect to how GLP-1 and its analogs act to restore and maintain normal cellular functions. These findings have prompted several clinical trials which have reported GLP-1 analogs improve cardiac function, restore lung function and reduce mortality in patients with obstructive lung disease, influence blood pressure and lipid storage, and even prevent synaptic loss and neurodegeneration. Mechanistically, GLP-1 elicits its effects via acute elevation in cAMP levels, and subsequent protein kinase(s) activation, pathways well-defined in pancreatic β-cells which stimulate insulin secretion in conjunction with elevated Ca2+ and ATP. More recently, new studies have shed light on additional downstream pathways stimulated by chronic GLP-1 exposure, findings which have direct relevance to our understanding of the potential therapeutic effects of longer lasting analogs recently developed for clinical use. In this review, we provide a comprehensive description of the diverse roles for GLP-1 across multiple tissues, describe downstream pathways stimulated by acute and chronic exposure, and discuss novel pleiotropic applications of GLP-1 mimetics in the treatment of human disease.

Abstract
Gastrointestinal dysmotility causes delayed gastric emptying, enteral feed intolerance, and functional obstruction of the small and large intestine, the latter functional obstructions being frequently termed ileus and Ogilvie syndrome, respectively. In addition to meticulous supportive care, drug therapy may be appropriate in certain situations. There is, however, considerable variation among individuals regarding what gastric residual volume identifies gastric dysmotility and would encourage use of a promotility drug. While the administration of either metoclopramide or erythromycin is supported by evidence it appears that, dual-drug therapy (erythromycin and metoclopramide) reduces the rate of treatment failure. There is a lack of evidence to guide drug therapy of ileus, but neither erythromycin nor metoclopramide appear to have a role. Several drugs, including ghrelin agonists, highly selective 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor agonists, and opiate antagonists are being studied in clinical trials. Neostigmine, when infused at a relatively slow rate in patients receiving continuous hemodynamic monitoring, may alleviate the need for endoscopic decompression in some patients.

Cholinergic signaling mediates the effects of xenin-25 on secretion of pancreatic polypeptide but not insulin or glucagon in humans with impaired glucose tolerance. PLoS One 2018; 13:e0192441.

Abstract
We previously demonstrated that infusion of an intestinal peptide called xenin-25 (Xen) amplifies the effects of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) on insulin secretion rates (ISRs) and plasma glucagon levels in humans. However, these effects of Xen, but not GIP, were blunted in humans with type 2 diabetes. Thus, Xen rather than GIP signaling to islets fails early during development of type 2 diabetes. The current crossover study determines if cholinergic signaling relays the effects of Xen on insulin and glucagon release in humans as in mice. Fasted subjects with impaired glucose tolerance were studied. On eight separate occasions, each person underwent a single graded glucose infusion- two each with infusion of albumin, Xen, GIP, and GIP plus Xen. Each infusate was administered ± atropine. Heart rate and plasma glucose, insulin, C-peptide, glucagon, and pancreatic polypeptide (PP) levels were measured. ISRs were calculated from C-peptide levels. All peptides profoundly increased PP responses. From 0 to 40 min, peptide(s) infusions had little effect on plasma glucose concentrations. However, GIP, but not Xen, rapidly and transiently increased ISRs and glucagon levels. Both responses were further amplified when Xen was co-administered with GIP. From 40 to 240 min, glucose levels and ISRs continually increased while glucagon concentrations declined, regardless of infusate. Atropine increased resting heart rate and blocked all PP responses but did not affect ISRs or plasma glucagon levels during any of the peptide infusions. Thus, cholinergic signaling mediates the effects of Xen on insulin and glucagon release in mice but not humans.

Abstract
Excess alcohol consumption can lead to alcoholic liver disease. Fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) is a metabolic regulator with multiple physiologic functions. Previous study demonstrated that FGF21 deficiency exacerbated alcohol-induced liver injury and exogenous FGF21 administration protected liver from chronic alcohol-induced injury. In this study, we aimed to explore the role of FGF21 in alcohol metabolism in mice. FGF21 knockout (KO) mice and the wild type(WT) control mice were divided into two groups and fasted for 24 h followed by a bonus of alcohol treatment at a dose of 5 g/kg body weight via gavage. Serum alcohol concentration was measured after gavage at 0.5, 2, 3, 4 and 6 h, respectively. At the end, gastric and liver tissues were collected. Serum alcohol concentration of KO mice was significantly lower than that of WT at 0.5 h after alcohol expose. There were no significant differences in alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) activity and aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) activity in gastric and liver tissues between WT and the KO mice. However, gastric emptying time of KO mice was much longer than that of WT mice. In addition, the intestinal permeability and serum GLP-1 level of KO mice were significantly higher than that of WT mice. These results suggest that FGF21 deficiency slow gastric emptying rate and indirectly influence initial alcohol metabolism in mice exposed to acute alcohol. Our findings provide additional information for understanding the gastrointestinal mechanism of alcoholic liver disease and other alcohol use disorders.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) is an incretin hormone secreted postprandially from enteroendocrine K cells, but despite therapeutically interesting effects, GIP physiology in humans remains incompletely understood. Progress in this field could be facilitated by a suitable GIP receptor antagonist. For the first time in humans, we investigated the antagonistic properties of the naturally occurring GIP(3-30)NH2 in in vivo and in in vitro receptor studies. METHODS In transiently transfected COS-7 cells, GIP(3-30)NH2 was evaluated with homologous receptor binding and receptor activation (cAMP accumulation) studies at the glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1), glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2), glucagon, secretin and growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) receptors. Ten healthy men (eligibility criteria: age 20-30 years, HbA1c less than 6.5% [48 mmol/mol] and fasting plasma glucose [FPG] less than 7 mmol/l) were included in the clinical study. Data were collected as plasma and serum samples from a cubital vein cannula. As primary outcome, insulin secretion and glucose requirements were evaluated together with in a randomised, four-period, crossover design by infusing GIP(3-30)NH2 (800 pmol kg-1 min-1), GIP (1.5 pmol kg-1 min-1), a combination of these or placebo during hyperglycaemic clamp experiments. The content of the infusions were blinded to the study participants and experimental personnel. No study participants dropped out. RESULTS GIP(3-30)NH2 neither bound, stimulated nor antagonised a series of related receptors in vitro. The elimination plasma half-life of GIP(3-30)NH2 in humans was 7.6 ± 1.4 min. Markedly larger amounts of glucose were required to maintain the clamp during GIP infusion compared with the other days. GIP-induced insulin secretion was reduced by 82% (p < 0.0001) during co-infusion with GIP(3-30)NH2, and the need for glucose was reduced to placebo levels. There were no effects of GIP(3-30)NH2 alone or of GIP with or without GIP(3-30)NH2 on plasma glucagon, GLP-1, somatostatin, triacylglycerols, cholesterol, glycerol or NEFA. GIP(3-30)NH2 administration was well tolerated and without side effects. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION We conclude that GIP(3-30)NH2 is an efficacious and specific GIP receptor antagonist in humans suitable for studies of GIP physiology and pathophysiology. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov registration no. NCT02747472. FUNDING The study was funded by Gangstedfonden, the European Foundation for the Study of Diabetes, and Aase og Ejnar Danielsens fond.

Abstract
Glucose tolerance after meal ingestion in vivo is the result of multiple processes that occur in parallel. Insulin secretion together with reciprocal inhibition of glucagon secretion contributes to glucose tolerance. However, other factors beyond glucose effectiveness and insulin action require consideration. The absorption of ingested nutrients and their subsequent systemic rate of appearance largely depend on the rate of delivery of nutrients to the proximal small intestine. This is determined by the integrated response of the upper gastrointestinal tract to a meal. While gastric emptying is probably the most significant component, other factors need to be considered. This review will examine all processes that could potentially alter the fraction and rate of appearance of ingested nutrients in the peripheral circulation. Several of these processes may be potential therapeutic targets for the prevention and treatment of diabetes. Indeed, there is increased interest in gastrointestinal contributions to nutritional homeostasis, as demonstrated by the advent of antidiabetes therapies that alter gastrointestinal motility, the effect of bariatric surgery on diabetes remission, and the potential of the intestinal microbiome as a modulator of human metabolism. The overall goal of this review is to examine current knowledge of the gastrointestinal contributions to metabolic control.

Abstract
The efficacy of Roux-en-Y gastric-bypass (RYGB) and other bariatric surgeries in the management of obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus and novel developments in gastrointestinal (GI) endocrinology have renewed interest in the roles of GI hormones in the control of eating, meal-related glycemia, and obesity. Here we review the nutrient-sensing mechanisms that control the secretion of four of these hormones, ghrelin, cholecystokinin (CCK), glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), and peptide tyrosine tyrosine [PYY(3-36)], and their contributions to the controls of GI motor function, food intake, and meal-related increases in glycemia in healthy-weight and obese persons, as well as in RYGB patients. Their physiological roles as classical endocrine and as locally acting signals are discussed. Gastric emptying, the detection of specific digestive products by small intestinal enteroendocrine cells, and synergistic interactions among different GI loci all contribute to the secretion of ghrelin, CCK, GLP-1, and PYY(3-36). While CCK has been fully established as an endogenous endocrine control of eating in healthy-weight persons, the roles of all four hormones in eating in obese persons and following RYGB are uncertain. Similarly, only GLP-1 clearly contributes to the endocrine control of meal-related glycemia. It is likely that local signaling is involved in these hormones' actions, but methods to determine the physiological status of local signaling effects are lacking. Further research and fresh approaches are required to better understand ghrelin, CCK, GLP-1, and PYY(3-36) physiology; their roles in obesity and bariatric surgery; and their therapeutic potentials.

Abstract
The gut-derived incretin hormone, glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) lowers postprandial blood glucose levels by stimulating insulin and inhibiting glucagon secretion. Two novel antihyperglycaemic drug classes augment these effects; GLP-1 receptor agonists and inhibitors of the GLP-1 degrading enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase 4. These so called GLP-1 based or incretin based drugs are increasingly used to treat type 2 diabetes, because of a low risk of hypoglycaemia and favourable effect on body weight, blood pressure and lipid profiles. Besides glucose control, GLP-1 functions as an enterogastrone, causing a wide range of GI responses. Studies have shown that endogenous GLP-1 and its derived therapies slow down digestion by affecting the stomach, intestines, exocrine pancreas, gallbladder and liver. Understanding the GI actions of GLP-1 based therapies is clinically relevant; because GI side effects are common and need to be recognised, and because these drugs may be used to treat GI disease.

Abstract
The gastrointestinal hormone glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) lowers postprandial glucose concentrations by regulating pancreatic islet-cell function, with stimulation of glucose-dependent insulin and suppression of glucagon secretion. In addition to endocrine pancreatic effects, mounting evidence suggests that several gastrointestinal actions of GLP-1 are at least as important for glucose-lowering. GLP-1 reduces gastric emptying rate and small bowel motility, thereby delaying glucose absorption and decreasing postprandial glucose excursions. Furthermore, it has been suggested that GLP-1 directly stimulates hepatic glucose uptake, and suppresses hepatic glucose production, thereby adding to reduction of fasting and postprandial glucose levels. GLP-1 receptor agonists, which mimic the effects of GLP-1, have been developed for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. Based on their pharmacokinetic profile, GLP-1 receptor agonists can be broadly categorized as short- or long-acting, with each having unique islet-cell and gastrointestinal effects that lower glucose levels. Short-acting agonists predominantly lower postprandial glucose excursions, by inhibiting gastric emptying and intestinal glucose uptake, with little effect on insulin secretion. By contrast, long-acting agonists mainly reduce fasting glucose levels, predominantly by increased insulin and reduced glucagon secretion, with potential additional direct inhibitory effects on hepatic glucose production. Understanding these pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic differences may allow personalized antihyperglycaemic therapy in type 2 diabetes. In addition, it may provide the rationale to explore treatment in patients with no or little residual β-cell function.

Abstract
Obesity is associated with differences in satiety, gastric emptying (GE), gastric volume, and psychological traits. Exenatide, a short-acting glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, is associated with variable weight loss. We compared the effects of exenatide, 5 μg, and placebo SQ, twice daily for 30 days on GE of solids and liquids (scintigraphy), satiety (ad libitum buffet meal), satiation (nutrient drink test, maximum tolerated volume [MTV]), and weight loss in 20 participants with documented accelerated GE of solids (T1/2 < 90 min). Exenatide delayed GE of solids (T1/2 [Δ] 86 min relative to placebo, P < 0.001) and reduced calorie intake at buffet meal ([Δ] 129 kcal compared to placebo). Median weight loss was -0.95 kg (IQR -0.7 to -2.1) for exenatide and -0.55 kg (0.3 to -2.1) for placebo (P = 0.23); 80% of exenatide group had documented reduction in weight. In the exenatide treatment group, there was an inverse correlation between gastric emptying T1/2 and MTV (R = -0.548, P = 0.089). The univariate association of weight change with posttreatment MTV was borderline (Rs = 0.43, P = 0.06); in the multiple regression model, posttreatment MTV was associated with weight change (P = 0.047). The effect of the short-acting GLP-1 receptor agonist, exenatide, on GE is associated with the change in food intake, and the latter impacts weight loss in response to exenatide treatment.

Abstract
After food is ingested, nutrients pass through the gastrointestinal tract, stimulating the release of a range of peptide hormones. Among their many local, central and peripheral actions, these hormones act to mediate glucose metabolism and satiety. Indeed, it is the modification of gut hormone secretion that is considered partly responsible for the normalization of glycaemic control and the reduction in appetite seen in many patients after certain forms of bariatric surgery. This review describes recent developments in our understanding of the secretion and action of anorexigenic gut hormones, primarily concentrating on glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1).

Abstract
Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP1) is a naturally occurring peptide secreted by intestinal L-cells. Though its primary function is to serve as an incretin, GLP1 reduces gastrointestinal motility. However, only a handful of animal studies have specifically evaluated the influence of GLP1 on colonic motility. Consequently, the aims of this study were to investigate the effects induced by exogenous GLP1, to analyze the mechanism of action, and to verify the presence of GLP1 receptors (GLP1Rs) in human colon circular muscular strips. Organ bath technique, RT-PCR, western blotting, and immunofluorescence were used. In human colon, exogenous GLP1 reduced, in a concentration-dependent manner, the amplitude of the spontaneous contractions without affecting the frequency and the resting basal tone. This inhibitory effect was significantly reduced by exendin (9-39), a GLP1R antagonist, which per se significantly increased the spontaneous mechanical activity. Moreover, it was abolished by tetrodotoxin, a neural blocker, or Nω-nitro-l-arginine - a blocker of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS). The biomolecular analysis revealed a genic and protein expression of the GLP1R in the human colon. The double-labeling experiments with anti-neurofilament or anti-nNOS showed, for the first time, that immunoreactivity for the GLP1R was expressed in nitrergic neurons of the myenteric plexus. In conclusion, the results of this study suggest that GLP1R is expressed in the human colon and, once activated by exogenous GLP1, mediates an inhibitory effect on large intestine motility through NO neural release.

Abstract
The contribution of elevated glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) to postprandial glucose metabolism after Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) has been the subject of uncertainty. We used exendin-9,39, a competitive antagonist of GLP-1, to examine glucose metabolism, islet hormone secretion, and gastrointestinal transit in subjects after RYGB and in matched control subjects. Subjects were studied in the presence or absence of exendin-9,39 infused at 300 pmol/kg/min. Exendin-9,39 resulted in an increase in integrated postprandial glucose concentrations post-RYGB (3.6 ± 0.5 vs. 2.0 ± 0.4 mol/6 h, P = 0.001). Exendin-9,39 decreased insulin concentrations (12.3 ± 2.2 vs. 18.1 ± 3.1 nmol/6 h, P = 0.002) and the β-cell response to glucose (Total, 13 ± 1 vs. 11 ± 1 × 10(-9) min(-1), P = 0.01) but did not alter the disposition index (DI). In control subjects, exendin-9,39 also increased glucose (2.2 ± 0.4 vs. 1.7 ± 0.3 mol/6 h, P = 0.03) without accompanying changes in insulin concentrations, resulting in an impaired DI. Post-RYGB, acceleration of stomach emptying during the first 30 min by exendin-9,39 did not alter meal appearance, and similarly, suppression of glucose production and stimulation of glucose disappearance were unaltered in RYGB subjects. These data indicate that endogenous GLP-1 has effects on glucose metabolism and on gastrointestinal motility years after RYGB. However, it remains uncertain whether this explains all of the changes after RYGB.

Abstract
The impact of the GLP-1 receptor agonist lixisenatide on postprandial glucose disposition was examined in conscious dogs to identify mechanisms for its improvement of meal tolerance in humans and examine the tissue disposition of meal-derived carbohydrate. Catheterization for measurement of hepatic balance occurred ≈16 days before study. After being fasted overnight, dogs received a subcutaneous injection of 1.5 μg/kg lixisenatide or vehicle (saline, control; n = 6/group). Thirty minutes later, they received an oral meal feeding (93.4 kJ; 19% protein, 71% glucose polymers, and 10% lipid). Acetaminophen was included in the meal in four control and five lixisenatide dogs for assessment of gastric emptying. Observations continued for 510 min; absorption was incomplete in lixisenatide at that point. The plasma acetaminophen area under the curve (AUC) in lixisenatide was 65% of that in control (P < 0.05). Absorption of the meal began within 15 min in control but was delayed until ≈30-45 min in lixisenatide. Lixisenatide reduced (P < 0.05) the postprandial arterial glucose AUC ≈54% and insulin AUC ≈44%. Net hepatic glucose uptake did not differ significantly between groups. Nonhepatic glucose uptake tended to be reduced by lixisenatide (6,151 ± 4,321 and 10,541 ± 1,854 μmol·kg(-1)·510 min(-1) in lixisenatide and control, respectively; P = 0.09), but adjusted (for glucose and insulin concentrations) values did not differ (18.9 ± 3.8 and 19.6 ± 7.9 l·kg(-1)·pmol(-1)·l(-1), lixisenatide and control, respectively; P = 0.94). Thus, lixisenatide delays gastric emptying, allowing more efficient disposal of the carbohydrate in the feeding without increasing liver glucose disposal. Lixisenatide could prove to be a valuable adjunct in treatment of postprandial hyperglycemia in impaired glucose tolerance or type 2 diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Delayed gastric emptying limits the administration of enteral nutrition, leading to malnutrition, which is associated with higher mortality and morbidity. Currently available prokinetics have limitations in terms of sustained efficacy and side effects. AIM To summarise the mechanisms of action and to discuss the possible utility of gastrointestinal hormones to prevent or treat delayed gastric emptying in critically ill patients. METHODS We searched PubMed for articles discussing 'delayed gastric emptying', 'enteral nutrition', 'treatment', 'gastrointestinal hormones', 'prokinetic', 'agonist', 'antagonist' and 'critically ill patients'. RESULTS Motilin and ghrelin receptor agonists initiate the migrating motor complex in the stomach, which accelerates gastric emptying. Cholecystokinin, glucagon-like peptide-1 and peptide YY have an inhibiting effect on gastric emptying; therefore, antagonising these gastrointestinal hormones may have therapeutic potential. Other gastrointestinal hormones appear less promising. CONCLUSIONS Manipulation of endogenous secretion, physiological replacement and administration of gastrointestinal hormones in pharmacological doses is likely to have therapeutic potential in the treatment of delayed gastric emptying. Future challenges in this field will include the search for candidates with improved selectivity and favourable kinetic properties.

Abstract
Exendin-(9,39) is a competitive antagonist of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) at its receptor. However, it is unclear if it has direct and unique effects of its own. We tested the hypothesis that exendin-(9,39) and GLP-1-(9,36)amide have direct effects on hormone secretion and β-cell function as well as glucose metabolism in healthy subjects. Glucose containing [3-(3)H]glucose was infused to mimic the systemic appearance of glucose after a meal. Saline, GLP-1-(9,36)amide, or exendin-(9,39) at 30 pmol/kg/min (Ex 30) or 300 pmol/kg/min (Ex 300) were infused in random order on separate days. Integrated glucose concentrations were slightly but significantly increased by exendin-(9,39) (365 ± 43 vs. 383 ± 35 vs. 492 ± 49 vs. 337 ± 50 mmol per 6 h, saline, Ex 30, Ex 300, and GLP-1-[9,36]amide, respectively; P = 0.05). Insulin secretion did not differ among groups. However, insulin action was lowered by exendin-(9,39) (25 ± 4 vs. 20 ± 4 vs. 18 ± 3 vs. 21 ± 4 10(-4) dL/kg[min per μU/mL]; P = 0.02), resulting in a lower disposition index (DI) during exendin-(9,39) infusion (1,118 ± 118 vs. 816 ± 83 vs. 725 ± 127 vs. 955 ± 166 10(-14) dL/kg/min(2) per pmol/L; P = 0.003). Endogenous glucose production and glucose disappearance did not differ significantly among groups. We conclude that exendin-(9,39), but not GLP-1-(9,36)amide, decreases insulin action and DI in healthy humans.

Abstract
CONTEXT To examine whether widespread tissue expression of the glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 receptor supports the possibility of differential effects of GLP-1-based therapeutics on cardiac function, blood pressure, food intake, gastric emptying, and other regulatory activities. GLP-1 receptor agonists (RAs) have demonstrated pleiotropic effects on overweight/obesity, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and cardiovascular (CV) disease. Food-regulatory effects have been demonstrated in preclinical and clinical trials, including reduced gastric motility and food intake leading to body weight reductions. Native GLP-1 and GLP-1 RAs have demonstrated cardioprotective effects in preclinical models. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION Using PubMed, we performed a search of the recent literature on GLP-1 and GLP-1 RAs. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS Preliminary clinical data indicate native GLP-1 has beneficial effects on endothelial cell function and vascular inflammation. Native GLP-1 and GLP-1 RAs have demonstrated renoprotective and antihypertensive effects, and reductions in lipid parameters. The GLP-1 RA liraglutide has also demonstrated positive effects on such markers of endothelial dysfunction as tumor necrosis factor-α and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1. CONCLUSION Preliminary data suggest GLP-1 RAs could benefit type 2 diabetes patients at risk for CV comorbidities. Additional studies are needed to confirm the extraglycemic and extrapancreatic effects and determine whether outcomes will translate into beneficial effects for patient care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Monosodium l-glutamate (MSG) is known to influence the endocrine system and gastrointestinal (GI) motility. The mechanism of postprandial glycemic control by food in the GI tract is mostly unknown and of great interest. AIM To investigate the effect of MSG on glucose homeostasis, incretin secretion and gastric emptying in humans after a lipid-containing meal. METHODS Thirteen healthy male volunteers (mean age, 25.5 years) and with no Helicobcter pylori infection were enrolled. A 400 mL (520 kcal) liquid meal with MSG (2 g, 0.5% wt:vol) or NaCl (control) was ingested in a single-blind placebo-controlled cross-over study. Blood glucose, serum insulin, plasma glucagon, plasma glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide were measured. Gastric emptying was monitored by a 13C acetate breath test. Postprandial symptoms were assessed on a visual analogue scale. RESULTS The 30-min postprandial glucose concentration was significantly reduced by adding MSG to the test meal. The area under the glucose concentration vs. time curve (0-60 min) was also significantly reduced by adding MSG (40.6 ± 3.51 mg·1 hr/dL with MSG vs. 49.2 ± 3.86 mg·1 hr/dL with NaCl, P = 0.047), whereas, the 30-min postprandial plasma GLP-1 level was significantly increased (58.1 ± 15.8 pmol/L with MSG vs. 13.4 ± 15.8 pmol/L with NaCl, P = 0.035). MSG did not affect the half gastric emptying time or postprandial symptoms. CONCLUSIONS Monosodium l-glutamate improved early postprandial glycaemia after a lipid-containing liquid meal. This effect was not associated with a change in gastric emptying, but was possibly related to stimulation of glucagon-like peptide-1 secretion.

Abstract
Infants with congenital hyperinsulinism owing to inactivating mutations in the K(ATP) channel (K(ATP)HI) who are unresponsive to medical therapy will require pancreatectomy to control the hypoglycemia. In preclinical studies, we showed that the GLP-1 receptor antagonist exendin-(9-39) suppresses insulin secretion and corrects fasting hypoglycemia in SUR-1(-/-) mice. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of exendin-(9-39) on fasting blood glucose in subjects with K(ATP)HI. This was a randomized, open-label, two-period crossover pilot clinical study. Nine subjects with K(ATP)HI received either exendin-(9-39) or vehicle on two different days. The primary outcome was blood glucose; secondary outcomes were insulin, glucagon, and GLP-1. In all subjects, mean nadir blood glucose and glucose area under the curve were significantly increased by exendin-(9-39). Insulin-to-glucose ratios were significantly lower during exendin-(9-39) infusion compared with vehicle. Fasting glucagon and intact GLP-1 were not affected by treatment. In addition, exendin-(9-39) significantly inhibited amino acid-stimulated insulin secretion in pancreatic islets isolated from neonates with K(ATP)HI. Our findings have two important implications: 1) GLP-1 and its receptor play a role in the regulation of fasting glycemia in K(ATP)HI; and 2) the GLP-1 receptor may be a therapeutic target for the treatment of children with K(ATP)HI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the role of endogenous glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) on gastric emptying rates of a solid meal as well as postprandial hormone secretion and glucose disposal. MATERIAL AND METHODS In nine healthy subjects, gastric emptying of a 310-kcal radio-labelled solid meal and plasma concentrations of insulin, glucagon and glucose were measured during infusion of saline or the GLP-1 receptor antagonist exendin(9-39)amide (Ex(9-39)) at 300 pmol·kg(-1)·min(-1). RESULTS Ex(9-39) infusion had no effect on the total gastric emptying curve, but changed the intra-gastric distribution of the meal. During infusion of Ex(9-39), more content stayed in the upper stomach (79.1 ± 2.5% of total during Ex(9-39) compared to 66.6 ± 5.7% during saline at 5 min). During Ex(9-39) infusion, higher concentrations of plasma glucagon were measured both before (after 40 min of Ex(9-39) infusion the glucagon level was 15.1 ± 0.7 pmol·L(-1) compared to 5.4 ± 1.4 during saline) and after the meal, and postprandial GLP-1 levels increased. Basal insulin and glucose levels were not affected by Ex(9-39), but the postprandial rise of insulin and glucose enhanced during Ex(9-39). CONCLUSIONS Endogenous GLP-1 is involved in the regulation of gastric motility in relation to meal intake and also in the regulation of postprandial insulin and glucose levels. Furthermore, endogenous GLP-1 seems to tonically restrain glucagon secretion.

Abstract
The detection of nutrients in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is of fundamental significance to the control of motility, glycemia and energy intake, and yet we barely know the most fundamental aspects of this process. This is in stark contrast to the mechanisms underlying the detection of lingual taste, which have been increasingly well characterized in recent years, and which provide an excellent starting point for characterizing nutrient detection in the intestine. This review focuses on the form and function of sweet taste transduction mechanisms identified in the intestinal tract; it does not focus on sensors for fatty acids or proteins. It examines the intestinal cell types equipped with sweet taste transduction molecules in animals and humans, their location, and potential signals that transduce the presence of nutrients to neural pathways involved in reflex control of GI motility.

Abstract
Glucagon-like-peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a proglucagon-derived peptide expressed in the intestinal enteroendocrine-L cells and released after meal ingestion. GLP-1 reduces postprandial glycemia not only by its hormonal effects, but also by its inhibitory effects on gastrointestinal motility. Recently, we showed that GLP-1 acts in the enteric nervous system of mouse intestine. Therefore our working hypothesis was that GLP-1 may have also a direct influence on the gastric mechanical activity since the major part of experimental studies about its involvement in the regulation of gastric motility have been conducted in in vivo conditions. The purposes of this study were (i) to examine exogenous GLP-1 effects on mouse gastric mechanical activity using isolated whole stomach; (ii) to clarify the regional activity of GLP-1 using circular muscular strips from gastric fundus or antrum; (iii) to analyze the mechanism of action underlying the observed effects; (iv) to verify regional differences of GLP-1 receptors (GLP-1R) expression by RT-PCR. In the whole stomach GLP-1 caused concentration-dependent relaxation significantly anatagonized by exendin (9-39), an antagonist of GLP-1R and abolished by tetrodotoxin (TTX) or N(ω)-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester (l-NAME), inhibitor of nitric oxide (NO) synthase. GLP-1 was without any effect in fundic strips, but it induced concentration-dependent relaxation in carbachol-precontracted antral strips. The effect was abolished by TTX or l-NAME. RT-PCR analysis revealed a higher expression of GLP-1R mRNA in antrum than in fundus. These results suggest that exogenous GLP-1 is able to reduce mouse gastric motility by acting peripherally in the antral region, through neural NO release.

Abstract
Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is a hormone secreted predominantly by the distal small intestine and colon and released in response to enteral nutrient exposure. GLP-1-based therapies are now used widely in the management of type 2 diabetes and have the potential to be effective antiobesity agents. Although widely known as an incretin hormone, there is a growing body of evidence that GLP-1 also acts as an enterogastrone, with profound effects on the gastrointestinal motor system. Moreover, the effects of GLP-1 on gastrointestinal motility appear to be pivotal to its effect of reducing postprandial glycaemic excursions and may, potentially, represent the dominant mechanism. This review summarizes current knowledge of the enterogastrone properties of GLP-1, focusing on its effects on gut motility at physiological and pharmacological concentrations, and the motor actions of incretin-based therapies. While of potential importance, the inhibitory action of GLP-1 on gastric acid secretion is beyond the scope of this paper.
