The medication used for Type-2 diabetes mimics the gut-brain hormone called “gluca- gon-like peptide-1”. Recently, Type-2 diabetes has be- gun to be treated with medications that resemble the body’s own hor- mone GLP-1. The hormone GLP-1 is produced naturally, both in the intestines and in the brain. After every meal, the levels of GLP-1 in the blood in- crease, which lead to an increase in insulin production and a de- crease in appetite. Medications resembling GLP-1 have become a potential new treatment for obesity and these findings can be of major clinical significance. “Our data can make an important contribution to the understanding of these mecha- nisms,” Anderberg added.
