Indeed the GLP-1(7-36) NH2 receptor, a GPCR, is found to be expressed by a wide range of tissues and cells such as: , , and -cells (169), sinoatrial node myocytes, arterial smooth muscle cells of lungs and kidneys, megakaryocytes, macrophages, monocytes, lymphocytes, gastrointestinal tract mucosa [mainly Brunner's gland in the duodenum, but also in the parietal cells of the stomach, jejunum ileum and the nerve plexus around the small and large intestine (170, 171)], central nervous system [neocortex, cerebellum, thalamus, amygdala, area postrema, hypothalamus, hippocampus, nucleus tractus solitarius (158)], peripheral nervous system (myenteric plexus) and in the skin (172176)
This is why skin regenerates more slowly and loses its structural integrity in midlifethe signal to rebuild is simply too quiet
