Abstract: Peptide dual agonists toward both glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor (GLP-1R) and glucagon receptor (GCGR) are emerging as novel therapeutics for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with obesity. Our previous work identified a Xenopus GLP-1-based dual GLP-1R/GCGR agonist termed xGLP/GCG-13, which showed decent hypoglycemic and body weight lowering activity. However, the clinical utility of xGLP/GCG-13 is limited due to its short in vivo half-life. Inspired by the fact that O-GlcNAcylation of intracellular proteins leads to increased stability of secreted proteins, we rationally designed a panel of O-GlcNAcylated xGLP/GCG-13 analogs as potential long-acting GLP-1R/ GCGR dual agonists. One of the synthesized glycopeptides 1f was found to be equipotent to xGLP/GCG-13 in cell-based receptor activation assays. As expected, O-GlcNAcylation effectively improved the stability of xGLP/GCG-13 in vivo. Importantly, chronic administration of 1f potently induced body weight loss and hypoglycemic effects, improved glucose tolerance, and normalized lipid metabolism and adiposity in both db/db and diet induced obesity (DIO) mice models. These results supported the hypothesis that glycosylation is a useful strategy for improving the in vivo stability of GLP-1-based peptides and promoted the development of dual GLP-1R/GCGR agonists as antidiabetic/antiobesity drugs.
