Glucagon-Like Peptide 1 Recruits Microvasculature and Increases Glucose Use in Muscle via a Nitric Oxide–Dependent Mechanism

Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) increases tissue glucose uptake and causes vasodilation independent of insulin. We examined the effect of GLP-1 on muscle microvasculature and glucose uptake. After confirming that GLP-1 potently stimulates nitric oxide (NO) synthase (NOS) phosphorylation in endotheli...
