Abstract
The multiple physiological characterizations of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) make it a promising drug candidate for the therapy of type 2 diabetes. However, the half-life of GLP-1 is short in vivo due to degradation by dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV) and renal clearance. Therefore, the stabilization of GLP-1 is critical for its utility in drug development. Based on our previous research, a GLP-1 analog that contained an intra-disulfide bond...
