Insulin and IGF-1 receptor autocrine loops are not required for Exendin-4 induced changes to pancreatic ß-cell bioenergetic parameters and metabolism in BRIN-BD11 cells

Pharmacological long lasting Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analogues, such as Exendin-4, have become widely used diabetes therapies. Chronic GLP-1R stimulation has been linked to ß-cell protection and these pro-survival actions of GLP-1 are dependent on the activation of the mammalian target of ra...
