Impact of incretin analogues on lipid and lipoprotein metabolism in obesity and diabetes

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Incretin‐based therapies have gained momentum as a key strategy for reducing cardiovascular risk in individuals with obesity and/or type 2 diabetes (T2D). It remains unclear whether the cardiovascular benefits reflect a direct reduction in atherogenic lipoproteins—namely, low‐density lipoproteins (LDL), very low‐density lipoproteins (VLDL) and

Amylin analogues as a novel perspective in anti‐obesity therapy

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Public health systems face a major challenge because of the worldwide obesity epidemic. The number of obese individuals has increased dramatically and, even in Switzerland which may be considered a relatively “lean” country, the numbers are alarmingly high and have reached almost 50% of the adult population.

Structural Analysis of Amylin and Amyloid β Peptide Signaling in Alzheimer’s Disease

Biomolecules
Amylin and amyloid β belong to the same protein family and activate the same receptors. Amyloid β levels are elevated in Alzheimer’s disease. Recent studies have demonstrated that amylin-based peptides can reduce the symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease in ...

Therapeutic access points: The roles of circumventricular organs in drug delivery and metabolic regulation

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
The current obesity drug landscape, dominated by GLP‐1 receptor agonists and emerging multi‐agonist therapies, has reinforced that long‐term weight loss is achieved in large part through central mechanisms that suppress appetite and reshape energy balance.

Incretin‐Based Therapies as Cardiometabolic Interventions: Outcome Hierarchy, Receptor‐Network Pharmacology and Phenotype‐Based Clinical Positioning

Diabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Incretin‐based pharmacotherapy was initially developed to improve glucose‐dependent insulin secretion and glycaemic control in type 2 diabetes, but its clinical interpretation has expanded substantially with cardiovascular outcome trials, kidney outcome data, obesity studies and next‐generation polyagonist development.

Control of energy homeostasis by amylin [PDF]

, 2012
Amylin is an important control of nutrient fluxes because it reduces energy intake, modulates nutrient utilization by inhibiting postprandial glucagon secretion, and increases energy disposal by preventing compensatory decreases of energy expenditure in ...

Molecular Mechanisms of Protein–Lipid Interactions and Protein Folding of Heterogeneous Amylin and Tau Oligomers on Lipid Nanodomains That Link to Alzheimer’s

Macromol, 2023
The disruption of cell membranes by tau and amylin oligomers is linked to amyloid diseases such as Alzheimer’s and diabetes, respectively. The recent studies suggest that misfolded tau and amylin can form neurotoxic hetero-oligomers that are structurally

Innovations in Obesity Treatment: Beyond Adipose Tissue Dysfunction

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
Obesity drives chronic inflammation, insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and cancer development through adipocyte dysfunction. Addressing this multisystemic disorder requires integrated strategies beyond diet and exercise, such as thermogenesis activation via menthol or capsinoids and appetite control through GLP‐1/GIP agonists and neuromodulation to ...

Relation between serum amylin level and epilepsy

The Egyptian Journal of Neurology, Psychiatry and Neurosurgery, 2020
Background Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by convulsions. Identification of biological pathways underlying epilepsy and novel genes may shed light on the pathogenesis of epilepsy as well as new targets for treatment.

Incretin‐Based Medications in Women and Reproduction: A Systematic Scoping Review and Consensus Guidelines for Clinical Practice

Obesity Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Pregnancy concurrent with incretin‐based medications is contraindicated due to unknown risk of teratogenicity, as is breastfeeding. The aim of this systematic scoping review was to investigate potential risks and benefits of incretin‐based medications in relation to preconception, pregnancy, and postnatal health, and to propose ...
