Efficacy and safety of glucagonlike peptide1 receptor agonists in type 2 diabetes: a systematic review and mixedtreatment comparison analysis
A key challenge in studying native GLP-1 is its extremely short in vivo half-life of approximately 12 minutes, owing to rapid inactivation by dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4), which cleaves the N-terminal His-Ala dipeptide from GLP-1 to produce the inactive metabolite GLP-1(936)amide
GLP-1RAs The natural ligand, GLP-1, is a 30-amino-acid incretin peptide secreted by intestinal L cells, effectively stimulating glucose-dependent insulin secretion, inhibiting glucagon release, slowing gastric emptying, and promoting satiety [62,63,64]
