Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) originates from proglucagon processing in intestinal L-cells. It binds to GLP-1 receptors in beta cells and other tissues, promoting insulin release and reducing glucagon. This peptide also suppresses appetite and inflammation, making it vital in managing diabetes and cardiovascular disease. GLP-1 analogs are used clinically for weight loss and glycemic control. Dual agonists combining GLP-1 and GIP actions further enhance metabolic outcomes, offering new options for treating complex metabolic syndromes.
