Abstract

Exendin-4, a glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist, is a potent therapeutic xenopeptide hormone for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. In order to further improve in vivo activity, we examined the introduction of sialyl N-acetyllactosamine (sialyl LacNAc) to exendin-4. The glycosylated analogue having sialyl LacNAc at position 28 was found to have improved in vivo activity with prolonged glucose-lowering activity.
