Ny strategi vid typ 2-diabetes prövas i kliniska studier. Glukagonlik peptid 1 (GLP-1) påverkar sjukdomens grundorsaker

Abstract
A novel therapy for type 2 diabetes is based on the gut hormone, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). GLP-1 is released from the gut during a meal intake and stimulates insulin secretion. The hormone also inhibits glucagon secretion, delays gastric emptying and induces satiety. It has been shown to reduce circulating glucose both under fasting conditions and after meal intake in subjects with type 2 diabetes. A problem in developing this novel therapy is that GLP-1 is rapidly inactivated by the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4), which results in a short half-life of the hormone requiring continuous infusion. Two strategies have been developed to circumvent this drawback. One strategy is the use of DPP-4 resistant GLP-1 receptor agonists... (More)

Two strategies have been developed to circumvent this drawback.

Both these strategies have been successful in clinical studies. (Less)
Abstract (Swedish)
GLP-1 (glukagonlik peptid 1) är ett inkretinhormon

som frisätts vid varje måltid.

GLP-1 stimulerar insulinsekretionen, hämmar glukagonsekretionen,

förlångsammar ventrikeltömningen

och ger mättnadskänsla.

Sammantaget har GLP-1 en glukossänkande effekt.

GLP-1 sänker blodglukos och HbA1c när det ges till patienter

med typ 2-diabetes. Risken för hypoglykemi är

mycket liten.

GLP-1 bryts snabbt och effektivt ned av enzymet dipeptidylpeptidas

4 (DPP-4); halveringstiden för hormonet

är <2 minuter.

Två strategier har utvecklats för att kliniskt kunna utnyttja

den goda effekten av GLP-1: dels GLP-1-receptoragonister

Två strategier har utvecklats för att kliniskt kunna utnyttja

den goda effekten av GLP-1: dels GLP-1-receptoragonister

som har lång halveringstid genom att

vara resistenta mot DPP-4, dels DPP-4-hämmare som

leder till förlängning av halveringstiden av endogent

frisatt GLP-1.

Substanser utvecklade ur båda dessa strategier är idag

föremål för kliniska studier på fas 3-nivå. (Less)
