Abstract

•Mosapride citrate slightly increased plasma GLP-1 levels independent of feeding.•Mosapride citrate plus alogliptin enhanced the increases in active GLP-1 levels.•Mosapride citrate plus alogliptin improved glucose tolerance.•The 5-HT4 receptor agonist and DPP-4 inhibitor exert synergic effects.

Pharmacologic stimulation of serotonin 5-HT4 receptors increased plasma active glucagon-like-peptide-1 (GLP-1) levels independent of feeding, and that pharmacologic stimulation of 5-HT4 receptors and pharmacologic inhibition of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 exerted synergic effects on plasma active GLP-1 levels and glucose tolerance in mice.
