Dual targeting of GPR119 and DPP-4 improves T2DM treatment

Sep. 15, 2025
No Comments
Among the emerging therapeutic strategies for type 2 diabetes (T2D), G protein-coupled receptor 119 (GPR119) agonists and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors have demonstrated promise due to their complementary mechanisms of action. GPR119 agonists stimulate glucose-dependent insulin secretion, while DPP-4 inhibitors enhance the duration of incretin hormone activity by preventing their degradation. Together, these mechanisms contribute to improved glycemic control in individuals with T2D.
