Effect of chenodeoxycholic acid and the bile acid sequestrant colesevelam on glucagon‐like peptide‐1 secretion
ConclusionsCDCA increased GLP‐1 and glucagon secretion, and delayed gastric emptying. We speculate that bile acid‐induced activation of TGR5 on L cells increases GLP‐1 secretion, which, in turn, may result in amplification of glucose‐stimulated insulin secretion. Furthermore our data suggest that colesevelam does not have an acute effect on GLP‐1 secretion in humans.
