Exendin 4 is a 39aa peptide found in venom from the Gila monster Helicoderma suspectum.
It is a member of the glucagon secretin family of peptide hormones and neuropeptides.
Exendin 4 is a potent agonist of the GLP1 receptor and hence a potent stimulator of insulin secretion.
It stimulates insulin synthesis and secretion, protects against beta-cell apoptosis in response to different insults, and promotes beta-cell proliferation.
It also promotes satiety, reduces food intake, reduces fat deposition, reduces body weight and inhibits gastric emptying.
Interacts with GLP-1 receptor (GLP1R).
Induces hypotension that is mediated by relaxation of cardiac smooth muscle.
