Similar to GIP, the stimulatory effects of GLP-1 on insulin expression and secretion were observed in the presence of high (450 mg/dL) but not normal (99 mg/dL) concentrations of glucose in the cultured cells, indicating the glucose-dependent insulinotropic effect of GLP-1 (117)
Interestingly, by endpoint, all three groups displayed elevated glucose concentrations to the same extent 15 mins after glucose administration despite significantly different fasted concentrations at time 0 (Supplementary Fig
