A GLP-1 receptor agonist approved for type 2 diabetes and chronic weight management.
INTRODUCTION: Dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonists have gained significant attention in clinical applications because of their remarkable efficacy in reducing obesity and type 2 diabetes. However, the mechanisms by which these dual agonists affect system…
INTRODUCTION: Semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, has gained increasing popularity for managing both type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity. However, as its use increases, new adverse events are emerging. This case report presents…
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and obesity increase the risk of infertility, preterm birth and birth of a hypertrophic neonate. Effective weight loss can improve this disorder. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect o…
BACKGROUND: Substance use disorders (SUDs) are widely prevalent and associated with high morbidity and mortality. Current treatments have limited efficacy and there are no United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved treatments for sever…
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and hypothyroidism often coexist, worsening cardiometabolic risk. Oral semaglutide and levothyroxine each improve metabolic parameters, but the effect of combined therapy is understudied. This study aimed…
BACKGROUND/AIMS: : Semaglutide is associated with gastroduodenal symptoms, such as nausea and vomiting. This pilot study used body surface gastric mapping (BSGM) to measure the effect of semaglutide on gastric function and associated symptoms. METHOD…
UNLABELLED: Dietary, surgical, and pharmacological methods can effectively reduce body weight; however, rapid weight loss can also be accompanied by a loss of lean mass. Previously, we found that intestinal fibroblast growth factor 15 (FGF15; mouse o…
PURPOSE: To investigate whether glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) agents differ with respect to the risk of developing sight-threatening diabetic retinopathy complications in patients with type 2 diabetes at moderate cardiovascular…
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists have attracted interest as gerotherapeutics, yet clinical-trial evidence for their effects on biological aging is lacking. We report a post hoc exploratory epigenetic age analysis of a 32-week, random…
Purpose The purpose of this study was to assess aspiration risk in patients undergoing elective eye surgery with moderate sedation as the anesthetic while taking the glucagon-like peptide type 1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA) Ozempic formulation of semag…
AIMS: Semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, has shown efficacy in promoting weight loss. However, limited data exist on its impact on lean mass, muscle function, and metabolic adaptations. The SEMALEAN study aims to evaluate these parameters in pati…
Semaglutide (SEMA) improves cardiometabolic outcomes in obesity, but its mechanisms remain incompletely understood. We examined the effects of SEMA in mice fed a high-fat, high-sucrose diet. Obese mice were treated with SEMA and compared with pair-fe…
Oral delivery of peptides and proteins has been pursued for over a century due to its noninvasive nature. Despite sustained innovation across multiple technological generations-such as enteric coatings, enzyme inhibitors, permeation enhancers, nanopa…
Tirzepatide provides superior efficacy in weight reduction and metabolic control compared to existing therapies. The present systematic review assessed the effect of Tirzepatide on the risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) among people l…
Consumers precluded from obtaining semaglutide or tirzepatide by clinicians or insurers are turning to natural "GLP-1" transdermal patches. The Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act specifies dietary supplement products must be swallowed, so al…
