A dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist approved for type 2 diabetes and obesity.
OBJECTIVE: Increases in adiposity and adverse changes in adipose distribution commonly occur in women during midlife and with the onset of menopause. This post hoc analysis assessed body weight changes with tirzepatide by reproductive stage. METHODS:…
OBJECTIVES: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) have shown beneficial effects on clinical outcomes in patients with heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) or minimally reduced ejection fraction (HFmrEF). This ne…
IMPORTANCE: Medicare and many commercial insurers do not cover US Food and Drug Administration-approved weight management medications, such as incretin mimetics (semaglutide, tirzepatide, and liraglutide), bupropion-naltrexone, and phentermine-topira…
OBJECTIVES: Dual incretin agonists are among the most effective pharmaceutical treatments for obesity and type 2 diabetes to date. Such therapeutics can target two receptors, such as the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor and the glucose-depend…
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists (liraglutide, semaglutide) and dual glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GLP-1/GIP) receptor agonists (tirzepatide) are approved for treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2D) and obesity.To compare…
Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R), a class B1 G protein-coupled receptor, plays critical roles in glucose homeostasis. Recent structural pharmacology studies using cryogenic electron microscopy, X-ray crystallography, mass spectrometry, and f…
INTRODUCTION: The objective of this work was to assess the association of tirzepatide with changes in insulin sensitivity and beta-cell function in Japanese patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). METHODS: This was a prespecified analysis of SURPASS J-m…
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep-disordered breathing. Obesity is one of the primary risk factors for OSA, while OSA itself may promote weight gain by impairing metabolism and increasing insulin resistance, thereby creating a vicious c…
AIMS: To compare the association of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA), sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i), and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4i) therapies on lower extremity vascular complications and mortal…
AIMS: This study aims to compare adverse drug reaction patterns of liraglutide, semaglutide and tirzepatide-glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) approved for anti-obesity medications-to evaluate their real-world safety. MATERIALS AND…
INTRODUCTION: Insufficient weight loss (IWL) or weight regain (WR) after metabolic bariatric surgery remains a challenge in obesity management. Therefore, this study aimed to retrospectively evaluate the impact of adjunctive tirzepatide therapy over…
OBJECTIVE: To explore the dose-response relationship of GLP-1 RAs in reducing glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), body weight, and incidence of adverse events among type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. METHODS: This systematic review and network meta-a…
INTRODUCTION: Semaglutide and tirzepatide are newly approved glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists for weight management in adults without diabetes. However, safety concerns regarding gastrointestinal (GI) adverse outcomes have been raised. This…
INTRODUCTION: Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists including Mounjaro and Ozempic, are increasingly used for weight management. Assessing the attitudes and beliefs of current and future healthcare professionals is important considering t…
Injectable antiobesity medications (AOMs), including liraglutide, semaglutide, and tirzepatide, have demonstrated significant efficacy in promoting weight loss and improving glycemic control. However, the extent to which diet and food intake and rela…
BACKGROUND: The prevailing treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD) is not yet satisfactory. The present investigate the neuroprotective effect of the GLP-1/GIP dual agonist tirzepatide and examine the potential mechanisms involved. METHODS: Analysis of…
