Biochem/physiol Actions

Liraglutide (NN2211) is a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1)-based incretin mimetic (cAMP stimulation EC50 = 61 nM vs 55 nM with GLP-1(7-37) using human GLP-1 receptor-expressing BHK cells), where GLP-1(7-37) sequence is modified with a Lys34-to-Arg substitution and a γ-Glu-C16 acylation on Lys26 for enhanced in vivo stability (plasma t1/2 in pigs post s.c. = 14 h vs 1.2 h with GLP-1(7-37)) and efficacy against type 2 diabetes and obesity (400 μg/kg/day s.c. in rats; 100-200 μg/kg bid or single 50-200 μg/kg i.v. in rats; 100 μg/kg bid or single 30-1000 μg/kg s.c. in mice; 2 μg/kg i.v. or 3.3 μg/kg/day s.c. in pigs).
