Enteroendocrine cells play a major role in sensing the luminal contents of the gut and communicating with other organs such as the pancreas, liver and brain. The gut-brain connection is essential in the regulation of food intake. These interaction is neuro-hormonal and mediated by incretin hormones such as GLP-1. Recently, GLP-1 receptor analogs were FDA-approved for obesity and diabetes.
