BACKGROUND: Based on the rapidly growing global burden of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) or steatohepatitis (NASH), in order to evaluate the efficacy of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) in the treatment of NAFLD or NASH this paper presents a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials(RCTs). METHODS: In this systematic review and meta-analysis, We searched PubMed, Medline, Web of Science and The Cochrane Library databases...

BACKGROUND: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a common disease and has been increasing in recent years. To date, no FDA-approved drug specifically targets NAFLD. METHODS: The terms "Non-alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease" and "NAFLD" were used in a search of ClinicalTrials.gov on August 24, 2023. Two evaluators independently examined the trials using predetermined eligibility criteria. Studies had to be interventional, NAFLD focused, in Phase IV, and completed to be eligible for this review...

Hypothalamic obesity does not respond well to conventional interventions for obesity. GLP-1 receptor agonists have mechanisms independent of the hypothalamus which may be potentially beneficial for managing hypothalamic obesity. This systematic review summarizes the efficacy and safety of GLP-1 receptor agonists use in hypothalamic obesity. A PRISMA-compliant systematic review was performed. Data was extracted from included studies and analysed based on change in weight, body mass index, glycaemic control, satiety, and safety profile with GLP-1 receptor agonist use...

BACKGROUND: Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and associated hypopnoea syndromes are chronic conditions of sleep-disordered breathing with significant sequelae if poorly managed, including hypertension, cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome and increased mortality. Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RA) have recently garnered significant interest as a potential therapeutic, attributed to their durable effects in weight loss and glycaemic control in metabolic syndromes, such as obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus...

AIM: To examine the real-world efficacy of glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) in monogenic obesity in patients with Alström syndrome (ALMS). METHODS: We screened 72 UK adult patients with ALMS and offered treatment to 34 patients meeting one of the following criteria: body mass index of 25 kg/m2 or higher, insulin resistance, suboptimal glycaemic control on antihyperglycaemic medications or non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. RESULTS: In total, 30 patients, with a mean age of 31 ± 11 years and a male to-female ratio of 2:1, completed 6 months of treatment with GLP-1 RAs either in the form of semaglutide or exenatide...

Polyethylene glycol loxenatide (PEX168) is a novel glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist with a longer half-life developed by modifying the chemical structure of exenatide. This study aims to assess the efficacy and safety of PEX168 and determine the best dose. We searched PubMed, Scopus, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases from inception to April 25, 2023, for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing PEX168 therapy alone or in combination with metformin versus other therapies. We used the risk ratio (RR) for dichotomous outcomes and the mean difference (MD) for continuous outcomes, both with 95% confidence intervals (CI)...

INTRODUCTION: Obesity is associated with chronic inflammation. Chronic inflammation has also been linked to insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and cardiovascular disease. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor analogs (GLP-1RA) are clinically used to treat obesity, with known anti-inflammatory properties. How the GLP-1RA exenatide effects inflammation in adolescents with obesity is not fully investigated. METHODS: 44 patients were randomized to receive weekly subcutaneous injections with either 2 mg exenatide or placebo for 6 months...

BACKGROUND: Obesity in both adults and children is a primary health concern that can lead to many complications at a young age, including insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and other diseases. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1) are drugs utilized to treat diabetes, but they are also approved as an adjunct to a low-calorie diet to reduce body weight and to enhance the metabolic profile readings for diabetic and non-diabetic patients. However, their efficacy and safety in children have not been extensively examined...

AIM: To investigate the potential mechanism of once-weekly glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA) in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) complicated with coronary artery disease (CAD). METHODS: We searched both Chinese and English databases for randomized controlled trials related to once-weekly GLP-1 RA for T2DM complicated with CAD to verify the safety and efficacy of GLP-1 RA. The underlying mechanism was analysed by network pharmacology...

AIM: The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Insulin Glargine and Exenatide on the muscle mass of patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). METHODS: We performed a post-hoc analysis of our previously study, a 24-week randomized controlled multicenter clinical trial (ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02303730). Seventy-six patients were randomly assigned 1:1 to receive Insulin Glargine or Exenatide treatment...

Dulaglutide is being extensively used for non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus and congestive heart failure and is also being used as an off-label weight loss aid. Due to its wide use, we had to shed some light on this rare finding of normal lipase level in a patient with signs and symptoms suggestive of acute pancreatitis. A high index of clinical suspicion for acute pancreatitis despite normal lipase should warrant a low threshold for radiological imaging to rule it out.

Obesity is a chronic disease with high prevalence and associated comorbidities, making it a growing global concern. These comorbidities include type 2 diabetes, hypertension, ventilatory dysfunction, arthrosis, venous and lymphatic circulation diseases, depression, and others, which have a negative impact on health and increase morbidity and mortality. GLP-1 agonists, used to treat type 2 diabetes, have been shown to be effective in promoting weight loss in preclinical and clinical studies. This review summarizes numerous studies conducted on the main drugs in the GLP-1 agonists class, outlining the maximum achievable weight loss...

INTRODUCTION: We have developed the Building, Relating, Assessing, and Validating Outcomes (BRAVO) diabetes model, an individual-level, discrete-time microsimulation model specifically designed for type 2 diabetes (T2D) management. This study aims to validate the model's performance when populated exclusively with a fully de-identified dataset to ensure its applicability in secure settings. METHODS: Patient-level data from the Exenatide Study of Cardiovascular Event Lowering (EXSCEL) trial were fully de-identified by removing all identifiable information and masking numerical values (e...

Clinical approval of the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) mimetic exenatide for the treatment of type 2 diabetes highlights the therapeutic effectiveness of venom-derived peptides. In the present study, we examined and characterised the glucose-lowering potential of synthetic Jingzhaotoxin IX and Jingzhaotoxin XI peptides, which were originally isolated from the venom of the Chinese earth tarantula Chilobrachys jingzhao. Following confirmation of lack of beta-cell toxicity of synthetic peptides, assessment of enzymatic stability and effects on in vitro beta-cell function were studied, alongside putative mechanisms...

AIM: To identify baseline determinants of diabetes remission in response to short-term insulin-based therapy. METHODS: In this study, adult patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) of less than 7 years duration were randomized to 8 weeks of treatment with (a) insulin glargine, (b) glargine + thrice-daily lispro, or (c) glargine + twice-daily exenatide, followed by 12 weeks of washout that enabled assessment of remission (defined as HbA1c < 6...

Proof-of-concept for therapeutic application of venom-derived compounds in diabetes is exemplified by the incretin mimetic, exenatide, originally extracted from the saliva of the venomous Heloderma suspectum lizard. In this regard, we have isolated and sequenced a novel 28 amino acid peptide named Δ-theraphotoxin-Ac1 (Δ-TRTX-AC1) from venom of the Mexican Blond tarantula spider Aphonopelma chalcodes, with potential therapeutic benefits for diabetes. Following confirmation of the structure and safety profile of the synthetic peptide, assessment of enzymatic stability and effects of Δ-TRTX-AC1 on in vitro beta-cell function were studied, alongside potential mechanisms...

Purpose: Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease often associated with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and obesity. Both obesity and NASH are closely related to inflammation. In this study, we examined how exenatide, a glucagon-like peptide 1 analog, affects inflammatory and NASH-related markers in patients with diabetes. Methods: This retrospective study was conducted on 100 patients who visited our hospital with a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus. NASH-related indices and inflammatory indices were calculated from data obtained at baseline and at the third month of exenatide treatment...

OBJECTIVE: Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) therapy in patients with type 2 diabetes and obesity leads to a significant reduction in serum thyrotropin (TSH) levels but it is unclear whether this is related to weight loss and improvement in sensitivity to thyroid hormones (TH). METHODS: We prospectively analysed clinical and biochemical data in patients with type 2 diabetes and obesity who were commenced on the GLP-1 RA exenatide and followed them for 12 months...

BACKGROUND: Glucagon-like Peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA) and metabolic and bariatric surgery (MBS) both improve cardiovascular outcomes in patients with severe obesity and type-2 diabetes (T2D). The aim of the present study was to assess the impact of MBS on major cardiovascular adverse events (MACE) in patients with severe obesity and T2D compared to patients with T2D treated with GLP-1 RA. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: In this propensity score matched cohort study on nationwide data, patients with T2D and severe obesity who underwent MBS in Sweden from 2007 until 2019 were identified from the Scandinavian Obesity Surgery Registry and matched to a non-surgical group with T2D treated with GLP-1 RA (81...
