Description
Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists are a class of medications that mimic the action of a naturally occurring hormone in your body
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2011
A recent genome-wide association study also identified the gene NBEA (neurobeachin) as likely contributing to differences in weight loss on GLP-1s
No reactive hypoglycaemia in Type 2 diabetic patients after subcutaneous administration of GLP-1 and intravenous glucose
Hence, preclinical and clinical studies of GLP-1 medicines, administered either acutely or chronically, suggest that a significant portion of the antiinflammatory effects of GLP-1 medicines is mediated by mechanisms independent of metabolic changes
