Intravenous infusion of GLP-1(7–36)amide improved global and regional function of the left ventricle, assessed by velocity, strain, and strain rate, and improved the post-ischemic myocardial stunning, particularly in ischemic segments, in patients with coronary artery disease and ischemic dysfunction induced by dobutamine stress echocardiography [175]. The gene discussed is GCG; the disease is coronary artery disorder.
