GLP‐1 receptor agonist attenuates endoplasmic reticulum stress‐mediated β‐cell damage in Akita mice
Aims/Introduction: Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is one of the contributing factors in the development of type 2 diabetes. To investigate the cytoprotective effect of glucagon‐like peptide 1 receptor (GLP‐1R) signaling in vivo, we examined the action of exendin‐4 (Ex‐4), a potent GLP‐1R agonist...
