Pancreatic beta cells synthesize and secrete insulin, the only hypoglycemic hormone in the body. These cells play a central role in the onset of diabetes. To protect the functional beta-cell mass is essential. The GLP-1 receptor, which belongs to the class B of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) family, is a major therapeutic target in type 2 diabetes. Through its receptor, GLP-1 potentiates glucose-induced insulin secretion and improves the survival of pancreatic beta cells. Glucocorticoids are stress hormones implied in energetic metabolism and are widely used in therapeutics for their anti-inflammatory, immunosupressive and anti-allergic properties. Neverless, on chronic administration, glucocorticoids can induce metabolic syndrome es...
