| Exenatide acetate Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | Exenatide acetate is White Solid
| | Uses | A 39-amino acid peptide originally isolated from the salivary glands of the Gila monster (Heloderma suspectum), differs from exendin-3 only in two positions close to the N-terminus. Application of exenatide causes an increase in acinar cAMP without stimulating amylase release. As an incretin mimetic, exenatide acts as agonist of the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor. As GLP-1, though with prolonged activity, exenatide augments the postprandial production of insulin and suppresses secretion of glucagon. For this reason, exenatide has found use as a medication of diabetes II. | | Uses | Application of exenatide acetate causes an increase in acinar cAMP without stimulating amylase release.

| | Clinical Use | 39-peptide known as an incretin mimetic;
an agonist of glucagon-like peptide-1,
used adjunctively in type II diabetes
mellitus. | | Drug interactions | Potentially hazardous interactions with other drugs
Anticoagulants: possibly enhances anticoagulant
effect of warfarin.
Other nephrotoxins: avoid concomitant use. | | Metabolism | Exenatide is eliminated through the kidneys by
glomerular filtration followed by proteolytic degradation. |
