摘要: To clarify the cytoprotective effect of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) signaling in conditions glucose toxicity vivo, we performed murine isogenic islet transplantation with and without exendin-4 treatment. When a suboptimal number islets (150) were transplanted into streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice, treatment contributed to restoration normoglycemia. 50 expressing enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) transplanted, reversed loss both mass grafts one 3 days after transplantation. TUNEL staining revealed that reduced apoptotic beta cells during early posttransplant phase, indicating GLP-1R exerts its on pancreatic by inhibiting their apoptosis. This beneficial might be used ameliorate type 2 diabetes improve engraftment rates clinical
