To examine how circulating glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) concentrations during liraglutide treatment relate to its therapeutic actions on glucose and weight, and to study the effects of liraglutide on other proglucagon‐derived peptides (PGDPs), including endogenous GLP‐1, glucagon‐like peptide‐2, glucagon, oxyntomodulin, glicentin and major proglucagon fragment, which also regulate metabolic and weight control.

Keywords: proglucagon derived; glucagon like; like peptide
