The GLP-1 receptor is found in multiple organs, each benefiting from the hormone's diverse effects. In pancreatic beta cells, GLP-1 promotes insulin secretion and enhances cell survival, supporting long-term glucose control in diabetes. In neurons, GLP-1 receptors support neuroprotection, while in cardiac cells, they aid in reducing inflammation and oxidative stress. This broad receptor presence across systems allows GLP-1 to act as a multi-functional hormone that not only manages glucose but also promotes organ protection, making it valuable for managing complex metabolic and inflammatory conditions.
