摘要: A lot of interest has engendered in glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) as an emerging new drug the treatment type 2 diabetes. GLP-1 exerts several effects that reduce glycemia diabetes patients. We recently also demonstrated ameliorates endothelial dysfunction mellitus patients with established coronary heart disease, suggesting a important cardioprotective role for GLP-1. Because hypertension is overrepresented and adversely influencing survival, we have now investigated direct on vascular beds rat organ bath model. It was found relaxed femoral artery rings dose-response manner. The relaxant effect from completely inhibited by specific receptor antagonist, exendin(9-39). Neither nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor, N-nitro-L-arginine, nor removing endothelium, affected effect. In conclusion, report action GLP-1, relaxing conduit vessels independently NO endothelium.
