Glucagon-like peptide 1: A potential anti-inflammatory pathway in obesity-related asthma

Abstract: Alterations in arginine metabolism and accelerated formation of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs), crucial mechanisms in obesity-related asthma, can be modulated by glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1). L-arginine dysregulation in obesity promotes inflammation and bronchoconstriction. Prolonged hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, and oxidative stress leads to production of AGEs, that bind to their receptor (RAGE) further potentiating inflammation. By binding to its widely distributed receptor, GLP-1 blunts the effect… Show more

“…Another class of insulin secretagogue, glucagon-like peptide-1 analogues, also display promising antiinflammatory effects in mouse models, 23 and have recently been proposed as potential novel treatments for obesity-associated asthma. 24 Our findings relating to insulin are consistent with those of Chen et al 7 who observed an increased risk of asthma in patients with diabetes who are regularly prescribed insulin compared with matched controls (OR 2.23, 1.52-3.58). Previous work by this group has yielded similar results.…”

“…Our findings here may potentially demonstrate the difference between exogenous and endogenous insulin on the incidence risk of asthma, when considered alongside our results from insulin users. Another class of insulin secretagogue, glucagon‐like peptide‐1 analogues, also display promising antiinflammatory effects in mouse models, and have recently been proposed as potential novel treatments for obesity‐associated asthma …”

“…[122] In addition, GLP-1 binds to RAGE and inhibits RAGE activation. [123] GLP-1 is also reported to inhibit AGEs-induced apoptosis of EC cells, increase the ratio of antiapoptosis Bcl-2/pro-apotosis Bax, downregulate cytochrome C levels, and inhibit caspase-3 and caspase-9 activities. [124] Moreover, recent studies have shown that GLP-1 can directly act on GLP-1R of ECs, which may play a role in anti-AGEs by reducing RAGE expression.…”

“…IL-17 is able to improve the secretion of inflammatory cytokines such as IL-6, TNF- α , IL-8, CAM-1, and CM-CSF through the MAPK or NF- κ B pathway [ 56 ]. The association between obesity and neutrophil count in sputum is significant; in addition, a recent cluster analysis has shown that the presence of obesity-related asthma is characterized by increased airway neutrophils [ 57 59 ]. In addition to this, IL-17, IL-6, and TNF- α secreted by Th17 cells recruit and activate neutrophils in the lungs [ 60 ].…”
