DPP-4 inhibitors address insulin deficiency by slowing the inactivation of incretin hormones GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) and GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide).

Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) and glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) are cleaved by dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4); plasma activity of DPP-4 may be increased in obesity.

In addition to its critical role at the genetic level, A-BOMB's unique ability to augment a controlled, steady release of insulin creates the ideal insulinotropic anabolic environment, increasing protein synthesis to stimulate muscle growth.

Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) was recently linked to adipocyte metabolism and obesity-related metabolic disorders, including NAFLD, induced by an excess of saturated fatty acids (SFAs), but its role in vivo, as well as underlying mechanisms, is unknown.

DPP-4 inhibitors inhibit the enzyme dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4), which selectively metabolizes the insulin-increasing hormones glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP).
