The gastrointestinal tract (GI) is the entry point for food into the body and is responsible for the production of various hormones that regulate body metabolism. Among these hormones, glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) stands out, being produced not only in the intestine but also in the central nervous system (CNS) and pancreatic ±-cells. GLP-1 has insulinotropic, neogenic, and proliferativ…
The Gastrointestinal Tract (GT) provides information to the Central Nervous System (CNS) about the nutritional status of the individual in partly through the gut-brain axis. The intestinal microbiota also contribute to this flux of information through neurohormonal mechanisms between GT and CNS, constituting the Microbiota-Gut-Brain (MGB) axis. The putative mediators involved in this proc…
