General description
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), a peptide hormone is liberated from endocrine epithelial cells of the small intestine. The proglucagon gene (GCG) codes for glucagon, glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), and glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2).

Biochem/physiol Actions
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) treatment helps to lower the risk of stroke in diabetic patients and to be neuroprotective in experimental stroke models. It participates in glucose homeostasis and has an impact on the cardiovascular system. GLP-1 may promote pancreatic β-cell proliferation and neogenesis. It enhances insulin release after a meal and triggers insulin transcription and biosynthesis.

Gemigliptin is a novel dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. This study evaluated possible pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic interactions between gemigliptin and metformin and investigated their tolerability.
