Physiological and therapeutic regulation of glucose homeostasis by upper small intestinal PepT1-mediated protein sensing
High protein diets are known to improve metabolic parameters including adiposity and glucose homeostasis. Here the authors demonstrate that preabsorptive upper small intestinal protein-sensing mechanisms mediated by peptide transporter 1 improve glucose homeostasis by inhibiting hepatic glucose prod...
