This invention relates to isolated polypeptides that are long acting analogs of human GLP-1. The disclosed GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptides have beneficial physicochemical properties relative to endogenous GLP-1 and known synthetic GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptides, such as longer (i.e., 'long-acting') elimination half-lives (t), and improved solubility and thermal stability. This invention also relates to methods of using presently disclosed GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptides in a variety of therapeutic indications, as well as methods of producing the same. The disclosed GLP-1 receptor agonist polypeptides are particularly useful in methods of treating metabolic diseases or disorders, such as type 2 diabetes, treating obesity, and providing weight loss, and in methods of treating nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and/or nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH).

Long acting glucagon like polypeptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists and methods of use

This invention relates to isolated polypeptides that are glucagon-receptor selective analogs and peptide derivatives thereof. These analogs are selective for human glucagon receptor with improved solubility, thermal stability, and physicochemical properties as compared to native endogenous glucagon. This invention also relates to methods of using such polypeptides in a variety of therapeutic and diagnostic indications, as well as methods of producing such polypeptides. These analogs are useful, alone or in combination with other therapeutic peptides, in methods of treating obesity, diabetes, metabolic disorders, and other disorders or disease.
