title: Nutrient, neural and endocrine control of glucagon-like peptide secretion.
abstract: The intestinal glucagon-like peptides, GLP-1 and GLP-2, are important regulators of nutrient intake, digestion, absorption and metabolism. Extensive studies have shown that the co-secretion of GLP-1 and GLP-2 is regulated by a variety of dietary nutrient, neural and endocrine inputs. Furthermore, secretion of these peptides is altered in a number of pathological conditions, including type 2 diabetes and obesity. The purpose of this review is to discuss the regulation of GLP-1 and GLP-2 secretion in both health and disease.
