Many of these peptides exhibit an alanine at position 2, rendering them ideal substrates for degradation by the enzyme DP IV. Indeed, Analysis of circulating forms of GLP-2 in rodents and humans confirms that both GLP-21-33 and GLP-23-33 are detected in the fasting and postprandial states. Consistent with the importance of DP IV for GLP-2 bioactivity and degradation, a relatively larger amount of GLP-2 is required to stimulate GLP-2-dependent endpoints in rats compared to mice, as the former exhibit comparatively greater levels of circulating DP IV activity. Accordingly, analogues of GLP-2 that are resistant to DP IV-mediated degradation are more potent than the native peptide in vivo. |
