ABSTRACT Yerba mate has been reported to have antihypertensive, hypocholesterolemic, antidiabetic, or antiobesity properties. Most evidences from human trials involved intakes of high amounts by habitual consumers. Considering its increasing popularity, this study aimed at assessing the potential cardiometabolic effects moderate intake yerba nonhabitual A randomized, crossover, controlled was carried out in healthy and hypercholesterolemic subjects. Anthropometric parameters, blood pressure, lipids, glucose metabolism, inflammatory cytokines, chemokines, different markers endothelial function, as well incretins, adipocytokines, hormones were measured baseline after 8 weeks consuming a decaffeinated isotonic drink (control).

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucagon (GCG) are polypeptides derived from a common precursor (preproglucagon) that modulates the activity of numerous cell types involved in regulating glucose energy homeostasis. GLP-1 GCG exert their biological functions via binding to specific G protein-coupled receptors (GLP-1Rs GCGRs). Ligand-activated GLP-1Rs GCGRs preferentially activate heterotrimeric protein Gs, resulting increased cytosolic cAMP levels. However, activation two also leads recruitment β-arrestin-1 -2 (βarr1 βarr2, respectively) intracellular surface receptor proteins. The β-arrestins activated contributes termination receptor-stimulated coupling. In addition, receptor-β-arrestin complexes can act as signaling nodes own right by modulating many pathways. this Review, we will discuss roles βarr1 βarr2 key metabolic mediated GCGRs. During past decade, GLP-1R agonists have emerged highly efficacious antidiabetic antiobesity drugs. Moreover, dual stimulate both predicted offer additional therapeutic benefits compared agonist monotherapy. We summarize try synthesize series studies suggesting development protein-biased and/or GCGR agonists, which do not lead β-arrestins, may even more agents.
