AIMS/INTRODUCTION: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of oral semaglutide after adding to or switching from incretin-related drugs by assessing the changes in HbA1c and body weight (BW) in participants with type 2 diabetes in…
BACKGROUND: Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is characterized by the autoimmune destruction of pancreatic beta cells, leading to lifelong insulin dependence. Despite advancements in insulin therapies and glucose monitoring, maintaining optimal blood glucose con…
INTRODUCTION: The glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analogue semaglutide is approved as an oral formulation for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. This study aimed to confirm bioequivalence between a new, second-generation (2G) oral semaglutide formulat…
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) exert cardiovascular benefits in diabetic patients, but the underlying mechanisms remain incompletely understood. Semaglutide, a novel long-acting GLP-1RA, has shown a reduc…
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists are a family of drugs, most well known by the third-generation once-weekly subcutaneous semaglutide, that act on the incretin pathway of metabolic, hormonal signaling to modulate pancreatic insulin re…
While obesity and diabetes are prevalent in both men and women, some aspects of these diseases differ by sex. A new blockbuster class of therapeutics, glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) analogs (eg, semaglutide), shows promise at curbing both diseases.…
INTRODUCTION: The safety and effectiveness of glucagon-like peptide receptor agonists (GLP1-RA) in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are poorly understood. METHODS: Patients with IBD treated with GLP1-RA were retrospectively identified f…
INTRODUCTION: Two phase 3 randomized controlled studies (ADJUNCT ONE (Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT01836523), ADJUNCT TWO (Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT02098395)) evaluated liraglutide (1.8, 1.2 or 0.6 mg) vs placebo in participants with type 1 diabetes (T1D) as…
Although mammals resist both acute weight loss and weight gain, the neural circuitry mediating bi-directional defense against weight change is incompletely understood. Global constitutive deletion of the melanocortin-3-receptor (MC3R) impairs the beh…
AIMS: Semaglutide, a novel long-acting GLP-1RA, stimulates insulin and suppresses islet-secreted glucagon to reduce glucose levels. It has been unveiled that m6A mRNA modification plays a pivotal role in regulating β cell function. However, it remain…
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: While glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) effectively reduce body weight, their impact on lean mass remains uncertain. This meta-analysis evaluated the effects of GLP-1RAs and GLP-1/GIP receptor dual agonists (GL…
High-fat diet (HFD)-induced microglial activation contributes to hypothalamic inflammation and obesity, but the mechanisms linking microglia to structural changes remain unclear. This study explored the role of microglia in impairing hypothalamic syn…
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to examine weight reduction and adverse events associated with use of antiobesity medications (AOMs) in older adults ages ≥65 years. METHODS: Seven databases were searched for studies evaluating weight reduc…
The 17th edition of the annual banned-substance review on analytical approaches in human sports drug testing is dedicated to literature published between October 2023 and September 2024. As in previous years, focus is put particularly on new or enhan…
Semaglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, used for Type 2 diabetes mellitus and more recently for weight loss, often causes gastrointestinal adverse effects such as delayed gastric emptying and abdominal discomfort. Current literature…
Obesity is a major public health challenge in the United States, despite widespread implementation of regulated diet plans, exercise programs, behavioral interventions, and surgical procedures. The emergence of incretin-based therapies, particularly…
American culture encourages overconsumption, fueled by ubiquitous availability and pervasive marketing of ultra-processed foods and other addictive substances. This chronic overindulgence has contributed to rising rates of obesity, type 2 diabetes (T…
Adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) are increasingly overweight or obese, in part due to intensive insulin therapy. Newer non-insulin medications targeting both hyperglycemia and weight loss are approved for people with type 2 diabetes. These drugs als…
