Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor is expressed in human and rodent testis

Abstract

In our findings, a careful evaluation of human testicular tissues and rodent testis revealed Leydig cells as a potential target for GLP-1. Collectively, an effect of GLP-1R in Leydig cell function may be presumed although future studies are needed to ascertain the GLP-1R's role both in normal and tumor Leydig cells.
