Question 26A new class of drug has been developed for patients with hyperglycemia type 2 diabetes; it works by acting as an agonist for the GLP-1 receptor, which reduces blood glucose levels. How does this new drugreduce the concentration of blood glucose?O A. Decreasing renal reabsorption of glucoseOB. Long-loop negative feedback of ACTHOC. Increasing insulin releaseOD. Decreasing glucagon releaseOE. Inhibiting cortisol synthesis
