General description

GLP-1 (7-37) is a truncated, bioactive form of GLP-1 that is the product of proglucagon processing in intestinal endocrine L cells. It is a potent insulinotropic hormone.
Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 Fragment 7-37 human (GLP-1-(7-37)) is an amino-truncated form of GLP-1.

Application

Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 Fragment 7-37 human has been used:
  • as a positive control for insulin secretion of pancreatic islets
  • to test its effect on insulin response in horse islets
  • in combination with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) test its protective effects in myocardial infarction

Biochem/physiol Actions

Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 Fragment 7-37 human (GLP-1-(7-37)) interacts with the GLP-1 receptor (GLP-1r). It mediates insulin release by stimulating the cyclic AMP accumulation in islet cells GLP-l(7-37) is a potential therapeutic agent due to its insulin-secretagogue functionality.

Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is an insulin secretagogue synthesized in the intestine and released in response to meal ingestion. It is secreted primarily in two forms, GLP-1-(7-37) and GLP-1-(7-36)NH(2), both of which bind to a specific GLP-1 receptor (GLP-1r) on

The discovery, characterization, and clinical development of glucagon-like-peptide-1 (GLP-1) spans more than 30 years and includes contributions from multiple investigators, science recognized by the 2017 Harrington Award Prize for Innovation in Medicine. Herein, we provide perspectives on the historical events

In vitro, truncated glucagon-like peptides [GLP-1(7-36)-amide and GLP-1(7-37)] increase insulin secretion in a glucose-dependent manner, and desensitization to the action of GLP-1(7-37) has been demonstrated acutely with high concentrations. The purpose of these studies was to evaluate the glucose dependency

Background. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) are being tested as treatment strategies for myocardial infarction (MI); however, their mechanisms in the heart are not fully understood. Methods. We examined the effects of MSCs, either native, or engineered

Equine metabolic syndrome (EMS) is associated with insulin dysregulation, which often manifests as post-prandial hyperinsulinemia. Circulating concentrations of the incretin hormone, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) correlate with an increased insulin response to carbohydrate intake in animals with EMS. However, little is
