The signals start with changes in gastric distention, leading to decreased acyl-ghrelin, increased deacyl-ghrelin, and increased gastric leptin.47 As food enters the duodenum, other enzymes or hormones including enterokinase, cholecystokinin (CCK), glucose-dependent insulinotropic peptide (GIP, previously called gastric inhibitory polypeptide) and glucagon are all secreted and act systemically to promote postprandial satiety (Figure 2C).48 With food entry into the small intestine, intestinal L-cells release glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1), which has wide ranging systemic effects promoting satiety.4951 Once food reaches the terminal ileum, enterocytes release peptide YY (PYY), oxyntomodulin and insulin-like peptide 5 (INSL5), which constitute the ileal brake and further delay gastric emptying and enteric motility.52 The cumulative effect is a central sensation of postprandial satiety, (Figure 2C)

The binding modes of the clinically most widely used DPP-4 inhibitors have been characterized and based on these findings, three different classes of DPP-4 inhibitors have been proposed: Class 1 comprises of saxagliptin and vildagliptin, interacting with the S1- and S2 subsites of the active center and covalently binding with Ser630 of the DPP-4 molecule
