The average firing frequency change of TH-positive ( n = 7) and TH-negative ( n = 8) neurons significantly increased during the application of 100 nM exendin-4 (Fig
In cases where the MIE is unknown or undefined, the earliest known KE in the chain (i.e., furthest upstream) should be used in lieu of the MIE and it should be made clear that the stated event is a KE and not the MIE
In contrast, the exendin-P5 mutagenesis profile was very distinct from the other peptides with few mutations altering exendin-P5 affinity and only a very weak, albeit significant, correlation with the effect of mutations on GLP-1 in cAMP signalling assays (Figures 4-5, Supplemental Figures 9-10)
