GLP-1 receptor signalling promotes β-cell glucose metabolism via mTOR-dependent HIF-1α activation

Abstract Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) promotes insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells in a glucose dependent manner. Several pathways mediate this action by rapid, kinase phosphorylation-dependent, but gene expression-independent mechanisms. Since GLP-1-induced insulin secretion requires gluco...
