Article Highlights:
GLP-1 and its analogs enhance insulin secretion, but the specific intracellular mechanisms in β-cells remain unclear. Key intracellular mediators including calcium, glutamate, γ-aminobutyric acid, serotonin, and urocortin-3 are modulated by GLP-1 signaling with variable and sometimes contradictory effects. GLP-1 may affect mitochondrial dynamics and redox balance in β-cells, both critical for function and survival. Gaps in knowledge remain regarding cross talk between classical secretagogues and GLP-1 pathways. Further investigation is needed to clarify how GLP-1 integrates metabolic, signaling, and organelle-based processes in insulin secretion.
