5.3 Tryptophan metabolites Tryptophan metabolites are generated either through direct decomposition of tryptophan by gut microbiota (e.g., Clostridium, Escherichia coli ) into indole derivatives (such as IPA and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA)) or via host-cell-mediated processes (e.g., indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1(IDO1)-catalyzed kynurenine production, 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) synthesis by enterochromaffin cells) in coordination with microbial metabolism
GLP-1 agonists are glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists used for type 2 diabetes and weight management in the UK
It makes me think, but I try not to think too hard about it
7.2 Nose-to-brain delivery of exendin-4 and insulin using penetratin Having established that intranasal insulin/L-penetratin administration was effective at mild stage of cognitive dysfunction but not at severe cognitive dysfunction in senescence-accelerated mice (Kamei et al., 2018), this group investigated the effectiveness of GLP-1 receptor agonist, exendin-4, in modulating severe cognitive impairment
