GLP-1(28-36)amide, a C-terminal nonapeptide derived from the cleavage of GLP-1 by neutral endopeptidase (NEP), is a significant product. It functions as an antioxidant and primarily targets the mitochondrion, where it effectively inhibits mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT). This compound exhibits anti-diabetic properties and demonstrates cardioprotection effects[1].
GLP-1(32-36)amide is a pentapeptide compound derived from the C terminus of the glucoregulatory hormone GLP-1. This compound has shown potential in inhibiting weight gain and regulating glucose metabolism in diabetic mice[1][2].
