Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor treatment induces a greater increase in plasma levels of bioactive GIP than GLP-1 in non-diabetic subjects

Objective: Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) possess multiple bioactive isoforms that are rendered non-insulinotropic by the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4). Recently, some ELISA kits have been developed to specifically measure “active” GIP...
