Constant tumor antigen exposure disrupts chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell metabolism, limiting their persistence and anti-tumor efficacy. To address this, we develop metabolically reprogrammed CAR (MCAR) T cells with enhanced autophagy and mito…
The global burden of overweight and obesity has increased by threefold since the 1970s, which led to increased incidences of cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes. This review aimed to explore the metabolic impacts of semaglutide, including its…
AIMS: Semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist, has shown promising effects in reducing cardiovascular events in patients with obesity and heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) irrespective of concomitant…
INTRODUCTION: With recent clinical implementation of tirzepatide, patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are transitioning from glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA) to a dual gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP)/GLP-1 RA-like t…
Recent pharmacological advances, illustrated by molecules such as semaglutide 2,4 mg and tirzepatide, have transformed the management of obesity. New innovative molecules, based in particular on key entero-pancreatic hormones such as glucagon-like pe…
Semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, has emerged as a promising agent in cardiovascular disease management, particularly for patients with obesity and diabetes. Recent studies have demonstrated significant benefits of Semaglutide beyond glycemic co…
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the effectiveness of semaglutide 2.4 mg for weight reduction and improvement in cardiometabolic biomarkers at 52 and 68 weeks in a real-world setting in the United States. METHODS: This noninterventional, retrospective cohort…
PURPOSE: Proteomics was used to study the effect of semaglutide on the expression of renal protein in obese mice, and looking for proteins that could improve the prognosis of Kidney Renal Clear Cell Carcinoma (KIRC). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Thirty-six…
INTRODUCTION: Real-world studies of anti-obesity medication (AOM) use have shown lower adherence and persistence than clinical trials; however, the impact of this reduced adherence in real-world settings remains largely unexplored. This study aimed t…
A 69-year-old female with morbid obesity (BMI: 47) and hypertension achieved significant weight loss following treatment with semaglutide. Starting at 241 lb, she lost 90 lb (over 30% of her body weight) over 65 weeks without side effects. This weigh…
Generic drugs have saved consumers billions of dollars in the United States. The demand for lower-cost and effective drugs, particularly for well-known peptide drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy (brand names for semaglutide), has resulted in a surge of ge…
INTRODUCTION: Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a complex chronic metabolic disease characterized by insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, inflammation, and visceral fat accumulation, leading to complications, such as cardiovascular disease and kidney damage. Eme…
BACKGROUND: Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists (RAs), initially approved for the management of diabetes, have demonstrated a wide range of metabolic benefits. However, their benefit and safety profile in liver transplant (LT) recipient…
INTRODUCTION: The PIONEER REAL Italy study examined the clinical outcomes associated with oral semaglutide in real-world settings. METHODS: This was a multicenter, prospective, non-interventional, single-arm study in adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D)…
