• Description: Glucagon-like peptide 1 (7-36) amide is a peptide hormone produced by the ileum and colon of the small intestine in response to food intake. It stimulates insulin release from the pancreas, inhibits glucagon secretion, and slows gastric emptying. GLP-1 is also a potent regulator of glucose homeostasis. The GLP-1 analogues are used for treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. These analogues are either injected or taken orally and mimic the effect of natural GLP-1 on blood sugar regulation and appetite control. The long duration of action means that daily injections or multiple oral doses are required to maintain therapeutic levels.
