Component

GLP-1 secretion in mouse intestinal cultures

GLP-1 secretion in mouse intestinal cultures. Interpret through the linked study species, preparation, exposure and measured endpoint.

3 recorded relationships. Experimental role, claim status and evidence remain attached to each record.

How nutrients influence it

Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.

How nutrients reach it in more than one step

Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

What acts on it

  1. Capsaicin did not increase GLP-1 secretion in the tested mouse intestinal and GLUTag cultures.

    Experimental context and source evidence
    evidence_access
    Primary full text available; selected claim-relevant methods, results, tables/figures and limitations reviewed. Supplemental proteome and all secondary findings are not exhaustively extracted.

    {"intervention": "Capsaicin", "comparator": "Matched basal culture", "endpoint": "Capsaicin did not increase GLP-1 secretion in the tested mouse intestinal and GLUTag cultures.", "effect_direction": "no_detected_change", "combination": "single", "conditions": []} Explicit extracted experimental comparison; source-derived draft.
    experimental_model
    Capsaicin 100 nM, two-hour secretion assay.

    **The GLP-1 experiment did not test allicin.** Allyl isothiocyanate (AITC) and carvacrol increased calcium signaling and GLP-1 secretion in mouse intestinal cultures; antagonism or Trpa1 deletion limited those responses. Glucose-induced responses persisted during TRPA1 blockade. In vivo, oral AITC at 15 mg/kg raised GLP-1 even in Trpa1-null mice; lower doses did not significantly increase it. Capsaicin did not increase secretion in the tested cultures. These findings constrain a proposed allicin–TRPA1–GLP-1 connection, but they do not demonstrate it. AITC is not allicin.
