Brain-Derived GLP-1—Understanding the Physiological Function and Anti-obesity Potential of Preproglucagon Neurons
Abstract. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is produced within the central nervous system (CNS) by preproglucagon (PPG) neurons. This brain-derived GLP-1, ra

Excited to share a new preprint from work I did during my PhD! 🎉

Here we uncover a direct gut-pancreas neuronal circuit that drives the glucoregulatory response to lipids 🫒

Huge thanks to @imperialcollegeldn.bsky.social and all involved.
