Functional interaction between ligands on GLP-1R-mediated cAMP generation in HEK-GLP-1R cells.

Abstract

<p>HEK-GLP-1R cells were pretreated (Pre-) for 10 min with 1 µM GLP-1 9–36 amide in the presence of IBMX before challenge for 15 min with the indicated concentrations of agonists. Where no pre-treatment is indicated, an equivalent volume of buffer (KHB) was added for 10 min in the presence of IBMX prior to ligand addition for 15 min. Levels of intracellular cAMP were then determined relative to the cellular protein content. The final concentration of DMSO (vehicle) for the 15 min treatment period was 5% v/v in all cases. Data are mean±s.e.m., n = 3.</p
