24GLP-1 is secreted by L cells of the distal small intestine and colon, in response to glucose, fat and amino acids. Its plasma half-life is approximately 2 minutes due to rapid inactivation by [[Dipeptidyl peptidase-4]]. GIP is secreted earlier, by K cells of the duodenum and proximal jejunum, and has a half-life of approximately 7 minutes. The two hormones act through distinct receptors on beta cells; both couple to adenylyl cyclase and raise intracellular cAMP, but through non-identical signalling cascades, and each contributes approximately equally to the total incretin effect in health.{{r|nauck2018}}24GLP-1 is secreted by L cells of the distal small intestine and colon, in response to glucose, fat and amino acids.
