Glucagon-like peptide 1 (1-37), human

HEK293 cells (5×10⁴) are seeded in a 96-well plate and transiently cotransfected with the GLP-1R plasmid and the CRE-luciferase reporter plasmid. After a 48 h transfection, different concentrations of GLP-1(1–37) or GLP-1(7–37) are added, and the cells are incubated for 5 h. The cells are harvested for a luciferase assay using a luciferase assay^[1].

Mice^[1]

The normal KM mice are fasted for 16 h before the administration (i.p.) of GLP-1 and glucose. GLP-1(1-37) (25 nmol/kg) with or without exendin(9-39) (250 nmol/kg) is given in combination with glucose (4 g/kg). GLP-1(7-37) (25 nmol/kg) with or without exendin(9-39) (250 nmol/kg) is also administrated in combination with glucose (4 g/kg). The control group is treated with saline (NaCl, 9 g/l) and glucose (4 g/kg). The IPGTT is carried out at 0, 15, 30 and 60 min after glucose and protein administration, and the blood glucose levels are measured as described above^[1].
