Fibroblast Growth Factor-21 Improves Pancreatic β-Cell Function and Survival by Activation of Extracellular Signal–Regulated Kinase 1/2 and Akt Signaling Pathways
Wolf Wente,Alexander M. Efanov,Martin B. Brenner,Alexei Kharitonenkov,Anja Köster,George E. Sandusky,Sabine Sewing,Iris Treinies,Heike Zitzer,Jesper Gromada +9 more
TL;DR: Preservation of β-cell function and survival by FGF-21 may contribute to the beneficial effects of this protein on glucose homeostasis observed in diabetic animals.

Engineering and characterization of the long-acting glucagon-like peptide-1 analogue LY2189265, an Fc fusion protein.
Wolfgang Glaesner,Andrew Mark Vick,Rohn Lee Millican,Bernice Ellis,Sheng-Hung Rainbow Tschang,Yu Tian,Krister Bokvist,Martin B. Brenner,Anja Koester,Niels Porksen,Garret J. Etgen,Tom Bumol +11 more
TL;DR: A long‐acting and efficacious GLP‐1 immunoglobulin G (IgG4) Fc fusion protein (LY2189265) with extended pharmacokinetics and activity is developed for type 2 diabetes treatment with a short half‐life.

Novel Small Molecule Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonist Stimulates Insulin Secretion in Rodents and From Human Islets
Kyle W. Sloop,Francis S. Willard,Martin B. Brenner,James Ficorilli,Kathleen Valasek,Aaron D. Showalter,Thomas B. Farb,Julia X.C. Cao,Amy L. Cox,M. Dodson Michael,Sonia Maria Gutierrez Sanfeliciano,Mark J. Tebbe,Michael J. Coghlan +12 more
TL;DR: These studies characterize the insulinotropic effects of an early-stage, small molecule GLP-1 receptor agonist and provide compelling evidence to support pharmaceutical optimization.

A novel glucokinase activator modulates pancreatic islet and hepatocyte function
Alexander M. Efanov,David Gene Barrett,Martin B. Brenner,Stephen L. Briggs,Annie Delaunois,Jim D. Durbin,Ulrich Giese,Haihong Guo,Mark Radloff,Gema Sanz Gil,Sabine Sewing,Yong Wang,Andreas Gerhard Weichert,Andrea Zaliani,Jesper Gromada +14 more
TL;DR: The effects of a novel glucokinase activator, LY2121260, support the concept that GK activators represent a new class of compounds that increase both insulin secretion and hepatic glucose use and in doing so may prove to be effective agents for the control of blood glucose levels in patients with type 2 diabetes.
Sterol Regulatory Element-Binding Protein 1 Mediates Liver X Receptor-β-Induced Increases in Insulin Secretion and Insulin Messenger Ribonucleic Acid Levels
Heike Zitzer,Wolf Wente,Martin B. Brenner,Sabine Sewing,Karsten Buschard,Jesper Gromada,Alexander M. Efanov +6 more
TL;DR: The role of LXRbeta, SREBP-1, and cataplerosis/anaplerosis pathways in the control of insulin secretion in pancreatic beta-cells is supported.
