Introduction • This study provides the first head-to-head comparison of incretin-based therapies developed to treat T 2 DM 1: – The GLP-1 receptor agonist, exenatide – The dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitor, sitagliptin • Exenatide binds directly to the GLP-1 receptor and is at least equipotent, if not more potent, than GLP‑ 12, 3 in: – Stimulation of glucose-dependent secretion of insulin – Restoration of first-phase and second-phase insulin secretion – Suppression of inappropriately elevated postprandial glucagon secretion – Slowing of gastric emptying – Reduction in food intake – Promotion of β-cell proliferation and islet neogenesis from precursor cells in both in vitro and in vivo models of diabetes 1 3

Introduction • The DPP-4 inhibitor sitagliptin inhibits the proteolytic cleavage of GLP-1 in the

Introduction • The DPP-4 inhibitor sitagliptin inhibits the proteolytic cleavage of GLP-1 in the circulation by binding to and reducing the activity of the DPP-4 enzyme by approximately 80%, increasing the concentration of endogenous GLP-1 by approximately 2 -fold, thereby: – Reducing plasma glucagon and increasing insulin and C-peptide concentrations, and increasing β -cell mass and function 1 4
