A novel DPP IV-resistant C-terminally extended glucagon analogue exhibits weight-lowering and diabetes-protective effects in high-fat-fed mice mediated through glucagon and GLP-1 receptor activation

Aims/hypothesis Modification of the structure of glucagon could provide useful compounds for the potential treatment of obesity-related diabetes. Methods This study evaluated N -acetyl-glucagon, ( d -Ser 2 )glucagon and an analogue of ( d -Ser 2 )glucagon with the addition of nine amino acids from t...

Zusammenfassung:Aims/hypothesis Modification of the structure of glucagon could provide useful compounds for the potential treatment of obesity-related diabetes. Methods This study evaluated N -acetyl-glucagon, ( d -Ser 2 )glucagon and an analogue of ( d -Ser 2 )glucagon with the addition of nine amino acids from the C-terminal of exendin(1-39), namely ( d -Ser 2 )glucagon-exe. Results All analogues were resistant to dipeptidyl peptidase IV degradation. N -Acetyl-glucagon lacked acute insulinotropic effects in BRIN BD11 cells, whereas ( d -Ser 2 )glucagon and ( d -Ser 2 )glucagon-exe evoked significant ( p
