GLP-1 — living evidence map
The Atlas page holds the claims; this is how its evidence evolved.
Summary
Glucagon-like peptide 1 is a 30-amino-acid hormone made in the intestinal L-cells by processing of proglucagon and released in response to meals. · pmid:17928588
Mechanism
Its main actions are to stimulate insulin secretion and inhibit glucagon secretion, limiting glucose rises after meals; it also slows gastrointestinal motility. · pmid:17928588
It is inactivated extremely rapidly by dipeptidyl peptidase IV, even before leaving the gut. · pmid:17928588
Identity
PubChem CID 16133831: Glucagon-Like Peptide 1, C149H226N40O45, 3297.6 g/mol. · pubchem:16133831
Where the evidence actually sits
Proportion of the 1 claim about GLP-1 standing at each tier. Community volume is shown on the Consensus tab beside this and is never averaged into it.
Living evidence history
1 resolved citation, oldest to newest, coloured by tier. Retractions and contradictions land here as they are recorded.
Structure
No structure representation on record. PepJunkie draws only what an authoritative record supplies; for a peptide that is the residue sequence, and none has been curated for GLP-1 yet.
Dose evidence, rung by rung
A studied human dose exists on file. Open the rung: the dose is the paper's, in its context, never PepJunkie's.
- Approved-label dose · a resolved regulatory document names a labelled dose
nothing resolved on this rung
- Studied human doses · resolved human studies at the established tier
- The physiology of glucagon-like peptide 1. · pmid 17928588 · 2007
- Observational evidence · resolved human data at the emerging tier: thin, or contested
nothing resolved on this rung
- Community-reported protocols · protocol propositions from distinct members, counted once per human
nothing resolved on this rung
- Preclinical evidence · resolved animal, cell or mechanistic work
nothing resolved on this rung
1 resolved citation, 0 unresolved (an unresolved citation lends nothing). Community volume is its own rung and is never averaged into the evidence rungs.
