The enteroinsular axis in glucose dependent insulinotropic polypeptide receptor knockout (GIPR-/-) miee
The incretins, glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagonlike peptide-1 (GLP-1), are gut hormones that act via the enteroinsular axis to potentiate insulin secretion from the pancreas in a glucose-dependent manner.
