Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) are an important asset in the armamentarium for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (type 2 DM). Incretin failure is a critical etiopathogenetic feature of type 2 DM, which, if reversed, res…
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is the most common form of diabetes mellitus and accounts for about 95% of all diabetes cases. Many newer oral as well as parenteral antidiabetic drugs have been introduced in to the market in recent years to control h…
For many years, obesity was believed to be a condition of overeating that could be resolved through counseling and short-term drug treatment. Obesity was not recognized as a chronic disease until 1985 by the scientific community, and 2013 by the medi…
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease, and there is no recognised therapy to cure it. Recently, it has been shown that treatments to improve insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) may be useful for PD pati…
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the efficacy and safety of once-daily semaglutide in comparison with once-daily liraglutide and placebo in patients with type 2 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: This 26-week, multicenter, double-blind trial involved pa…
Subcutaneous (SC) injection is the most common administration route for peptide therapeutics. Catabolism at the injection site can be a specific and major degradation pathway for many SC administered peptides. In some cases, it can significantly affe…
UNLABELLED: Our network meta-analysis analyzed the effects of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) on fracture risk. By combining data from randomized controlled trials, we found that GLP-1 RAs were associated with a decreased bone f…
A growing body of data, guideline recommendations, algorithms, and position papers supports the use of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists in type 2 diabetes (T2D), given their beneficial effects on glycemic control, weight, lipid param…
OBJECTIVES: To investigate the safety and efficacy of once-weekly glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist semaglutide as monotherapy or add-on to other antihyperglycaemic agents (AHAs) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHOD…
Incretin-based therapies, including glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists and dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP-4) inhibitors, are potent glucose-lowering drugs. Still, only GLP-1 receptor agonists with close peptide homology to GLP-1 (liraglut…
To develop novel long-acting antidiabetic agents, mycophenolic acid (MPA) was used to modifyglucagon-like peptide-1 analog (GLP-1) () at three Lys residues through a γ-glutamyl linker. Similarly, 6-aminocaproic acid and 12-aminolauric acid with diffe…
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) carries risks of both cardiovascular (CV) (myocardial infarction, stroke, and peripheral vascular disease) and microvascular (retinopathy/nephropathy/neuropathy) complications. Glucose-lowering is an effective strategy for preve…
BACKGROUND: Obesity is a major public health issue, and new pharmaceuticals for weight management are needed. Therefore, we evaluated the efficacy and safety of the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) analogue semaglutide in comparison with liraglutide a…
UNLABELLED: This article provides an overview of the efficacy and safety of once-weekly glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). GLP-1 RAs stimulate pancreatic GLP-1 receptors, which i…
UNLABELLED: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with an increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular (ASCVD) disease, which is the largest contributor to the economic burden of diabetes. Minimization of disease morbidity through compreh…
UNLABELLED: Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is associated with significant impairment in health-related quality of life (HRQoL). A patient-centered collaborative approach is recommended to optimize clinical outcomes, including HRQoL, in this patient populatio…
