The hypothesis that peripheral glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is a regulator of both food intake and macronutrient selection in rats was tested by administration of its antagonist, exendin 939, and its agonist, exendin 4. The effect of exendin 939 given intraperitoneally (i.p.) on food intake was measured after carbohydrate, protein or fat preloads, and on choice between a protein-free, high carbohydrate (CHO) diet and a high protein, low carbohydrate (PRO) diet. The effect of exendin 4 on selection between the CHO and PRO diets was also investigated. Exendin 939 significantly enhanced food intake suppression occurring after glucose, but not after corn oil or albumin preloads. In diet selection studies, exendin 939 selectively decreased intake of only the CHO diet. In contrast, exendin 4 decreased intake of only the PRO diet. Thus, we suggest that peripheral GLP-1 plays a role in the regulation of macronutrient selection as well as food intake in rats.
KEY WORDS: gut peptide high protein, low carbohydrate diet intraperitoneal administration protein-free, high carbohydrate diet rats
