Therefore, the interacting peptide must possess complementary amino acids at specific positions to align with the rigid ECL1 structure to effectively bind and activate GLP-1R or GCGR
However, it is important to note that erythrocytes generate ROS primarily as a result of (i) hemoglobin oxidation, which can be considered as an iron-mediated Fenton reaction, (ii) the activity of NAPDH oxidase and (iii) xanthine oxidoreductase, while in nucleated cells ROS are mainly generated in the mitochondrial electron transport chain
Over time, this can affect every part of the body, such as our bones, muscles and nervous system
