Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 receptor is encoded by GLP1R. The effect of genetic variation at this locus on the response to GLP-1 is unknown. This study assessed the effect of GLP1R polymorphisms on insulin secretion in response to hyperglycemia and to infused GLP-1 in nondiabetic subjects. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Eighty-eight healthy individuals (aged 26.3 +/- 0.6 years, fasting glucose 4.83 +/-...
