Biochem/physiol Actions

Lixisenatide (AVE0010, ZP10A) is a C-terminal amidated synthetic glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonist peptide whose sequence corresponds to Pro38 deleted exendin-4 with a C-terminal extension by six Lys residues. Lixisenatide exhibits 4-times higher human GLP-1R affinity than GLP-1(7-36) amide and dispalys in vivo therapeutic efficacy in murine and rat models of type 2 diabetes, as well as rat models of dox-induced renal fibrosis, global cerebral I/R injury, abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and Aβ25-35 toxicity.

Recent clinical studies indicate that glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analogues prevent acute cardiovascular events in type 2 diabetes mellitus but their mechanisms remain unknown. In the present study, the impact of GLP-1 analogues and their potential underlying molecular mechanisms in insulin

To demonstrate the protective effect of glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) signaling on the cardiovascular system, we conducted this study to show that the GLP-1 receptor analog (lixisenatide) could inhibit abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) development in rats. Lixisenatide was injected subcutaneously

Glucagon-like peptide-1 induces glucose-dependent insulin secretion and, in rodents, increases proliferation and survival of pancreatic beta cells. To investigate the effects on human beta cells, we used immunodeficient mice transplanted with human islets. The goal was to determine whether lixisenatide

Type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM) is a risk factor of Alzheimer's disease (AD), which is most likely linked to impairments of insulin signaling in the brain. Hence, drugs enhancing insulin signaling may have therapeutic potential for AD. Lixisenatide, a novel long-lasting

Endogenous glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) regulates glucose-induced insulin secretion through both direct β-cell-dependent and indirect gut-brain axis-dependent pathways. However, little is known about the mode of action of the GLP-1 receptor agonist lixisenatide. We studied the effects of lixisenatide (intraperitoneal injection)
