Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1RA), a novel hypoglycemic agent for the treatment of type 2 diabetes, has well-known effects such as lowering blood sugar, ameliorating inflammation, reducing weight, and lowering blood lipids. It has also been shown that it ca...
New-generation antidiabetic agents, particularly those targeting the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) pathway, represent a significant advancement in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. GLP-1 is an incretin hormone that is secreted in response to food intake, and it exerts multiple actions conducive...
GLP-1 agonists are medications used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus in adults. They are sometimes referred to as incretin mimetics, GLP-1 analogs, or GLP-1 receptor agonists. A few drugs in this class are exenatide, lixisenatide, liraglutide, albiglutide, dulaglutide, and semaglutide. Insulin ...
Use of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) is associated with increased risks for gallbladder or biliary diseases, with a higher risk for GLP-1 RA use in weight loss, according to a review published online March 28 in JAMA Internal Medi
Glucagon-like Peptide 1 Receptor Agonists Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) have a beneficial weight-lowering effect in type 2 diabetes associated with a reduction incardiovascular mortality.116In the LEADER (Liraglutide Effect and Action in Diabetes: Evaluation ...
In the past 2 decades, eight glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) have been approved for the management of type 2 diabetes, each with its peculiar molecular structure, pharmacokinetics, and metabolic effects. Along with their marked glucose-lowering actions, which occur both at ...

Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP1) receptor (GLP1R) agonists reduce body weight, glycaemia, blood pressure, postprandial lipaemia and inflammation — actions that could contribute to the reduction of cardiovascular events. Cardiovascular outcome trials (CVOTs) have demonstrated that GLP1R agonists reduce ...
GLP-1: Glucagon-like peptide-1; GIP: Glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide. Tirzepatide, a novel dual incretin receptor agonist (twincretin) acting on both GLP-1 and GIP receptors, has demonstrated superior efficacy on HbA1c and body weight improvements in T2DM than incretins alone[28]....
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an incretin hormone that promotes healthy insulin signaling, regulates blood sugar levels, and suppresses appetite. Consequently, numerous GLP-1 receptor (GLP-1R) stimulating drugs have been developed and approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) ...
