The intestinotropic hormone glucagon-like peptide
(GLP)-2-(1
33) is cleaved in vitro to GLP-2-(3
33) by dipeptidyl
peptidase IV (DP IV). To determine the importance of DP IV versus renal clearance in the regulation of circulating GLP-2-(1
33) levels in
vivo, GLP-2-(1
33) or the DP IV-resistant analog
[Gly2]GLP-2 was
injected in normal or DP IV-negative rats and assayed by HPLC and RIA.
Normal rats showed a steady degradation of GLP-2-(1
33) to
GLP-2-(3
33) over time, whereas little or no conversion was detected
for GLP-2-(1
33) in DP IV-negative rats and for
[Gly2]GLP-2 in normal
rats. To determine the role of the kidney in clearance of GLP-2-(1
33)
from the circulation, normal rats were bilaterally nephrectomized, and
plasma immunoreactive GLP-2 levels were measured. The slope of the
disappearance curves for both GLP-2-(1
33) and
[Gly2]GLP-2 were
significantly reduced in nephrectomized compared with nonnephrectomized
rats (P < 0.01). In contrast to both
GLP-2-(1
33) and
[Gly2]GLP-2,
GLP-2-(3
33) did not stimulate intestinal growth in a murine assay in
vivo. Thus the intestinotropic actions of GLP-2-(1
33) are determined
both by the actions of DP IV and by the kidney in vivo in the rat.
