glp-1/gcgr dual agonist Effects, working principles and target tissues of agonists Frontiers | GLP−1 receptor agonists
Description
The neurons in these areas that express the GLP-1 receptor interact with GLP-1 analogs, indirectly influencing central circuits
GLP-1RAs contribute to improved glycemic control by lowering glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and promoting weight loss without causing hypoglycemia, a notable advantage over sulfonylureas and meglitinides
As doses increase, weekly consumption rises proportionally

These findings may have clinical relevance as AUD is associated with polymorphisms in GLP-1-related genes
