“…Furthermore, some of them, due to lack of efficacy, even have to discontinue their treatment, defining a state of GLP-1 resistance (Knop et al, 2012;Muscelli et al, 2008). The mechanisms responsible for GLP-1 unresponsiveness could be related to lipo-glucotoxicity (Duca et al, 2013;Hodson et al, 2013;Ten Kulve et al, 2016;Xu et al, 2007), autonomic neuropathy (Lee et al, 2012;Lobinet et al, 2015), and gut microbiota dysbiosis (B€ ackhed et al, 2004;Gill et al, 2006;Ley et al, 2005). Regarding the latter hypothesis, we and others notably demonstrated the role played by the proinflammatory bacterial determinant lipopolysaccharides (LPSs) and peptidoglycans on inflammation-induced insulin resistance (Amar et al, 2011;Cani et al, 2007a;Denou et al, 2015;Schertzer et al, 2011).…”
