As protein-based biologics, they are extremely sensitive to temperature deviations: Too Cold (below +2 C): Freezing causes proteins in GLP-1 drugs to denature, making the batch unusable and resulting in immediate financial loss
To elucidate the importance of pancreatic GLP-1R signaling for glucose homeostasis, we generated transgenic mice that expressed the human GLP-1R in islets and pancreatic ductal cells (Pdx1-hGLP1R:Glp1r/ mice)
