Introduction Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and glucagon arise from differential processing of the glucagon precursor, proglucagon (PG) (1) . Both peptides are important for normal glucose homeostasis, which focused interest on their potential

Introduction Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) is a gut-derived glucoregulatory hormone secreted in response to food consumption. Human GLP-1 is synthesised from the proglucagon gene and is secreted from the enteroendocrine L cells ( 1 ). Some
