Investigation of GLP-2 Mechanism of Action (GA-8)

January 15, 2020 updated by: Kirsa Skov-Jeppesen, University of Copenhagen
Glucagon-like peptide-2 (GLP-2) is a naturally occuring hormone secreted to the circulation in response to food ingestion. Previous studies have shown that GLP-2 and incretins inhibit the bone resorption. However, the mechanism is unknown. In the present study we will investigate the mechanism of action using a receptor specific inhibitor.
