Conclusion Beyond their established role as potent antihyperglycemic agents, GLP-1RAs show potential for treating neurodegenerative diseases with disease-modifying effects
In mouse microglia, a GLP-1 receptor agonist called NLY01 blocked nuclear translocation of NF-kB entirely when cells were stimulated with bacterial endotoxin
The pharmaceutical industry's evolution in obesity therapeutics has progressed from single-target approaches (pure GLP-1 agonists like semaglutide) to dual agonists (GLP-1/GIP like tirzepatide), and now to triple agonists like retatrutide that attempt to orchestrate an even more comprehensive metabolic remodeling by simultaneously modulating multiple complementary pathways
The receptor is a class B G-protein-coupled receptor that signals mainly through cyclic AMP, and it is expressed far beyond the pancreas, in the brain, gut, vasculature, heart, and kidney
