Incretins Beyond the Pancreas: Exploring the Impact of GIP and GLP-1/2 on Bone Remodeling.
Discovery Medicine 2024 April
Incretin hormones, such as glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 and 2 (GLP-1, 2), belong to the group of gastrointestinal hormones. Their actions occur through interaction with GIP and GLP-1/2 receptors, which are present in various target tissues. Apart from their well-established roles in pancreatic function and insulin regulation, incretins elicit significant effects that extend beyond the pancreas. Specifically, these hormones stimulate osteoblast differentiation and inhibit osteoclast activity, thereby promoting bone anabolism. Moreover, they play a pivotal role in bone mineralization and overall bone quality and function, making them potentially therapeutic for managing bone health. Thus, this review provides a summary of the crucial involvement of incretins in bone metabolism, influencing both bone formation and resorption processes. While existing evidence is persuasive, further studies are necessary for a comprehensive understanding of the therapeutic potential of incretins in modifying bone health.
