Title: Glucagon-like peptide-1 does not have a role in hepatic carbohydrate metabolism. Author: Ghiglione M, Blazquez E, Uttenthal LO, de Diego JG, Alvarez E, George SK, Bloom SR. Journal: Diabetologia; 1985 Dec; 28(12):920-1. PubMed ID: 3005098. Abstract: Glucagon-like peptide-1 does not have specific, high-affinity receptors on rat liver membranes, does not displace glucagon from glucagon receptors on these membranes and does not stimulate the production of cyclic AMP by isolated rat hepatocytes. In the presence of glucagon, high concentrations of glucagon-like peptide-1 do not significantly alter the production of cyclic AMP. Thus, glucagon-like peptide-1 appears unlikely to have a direct action on hepatic carbohydrate metabolism.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
