Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists and muscle strength changes in older adults: Risks beyond muscle mass reductions

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Gastric inhibitory polypeptide (GIP)/Glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonists are increasingly prescribed for the management of obesity and type 2 diabetes, yet research pertinent to their effects on muscle health is limited. Considering the central role of muscle strength as a sarcopenia component, this article summarizes emerging ...

Aspartate Transporter SLC1A3 Promotes Colorectal Cancer via MDM2‐p53 Pathway and M2 Macrophage Polarization

open access: yesCancer Science, EarlyView.
SLC1A3 promotes colorectal cancer progression by transporting extracellular aspartate into tumor cells, thereby activating the PKC/MDM2/p53 pathway to enhance proliferation. Reduced extracellular aspartate, combined with p53‐dependent suppression of CSF2 and IL17C, drives M2 macrophage polarization via immune modulation, macrophage recruitment, and M2 ...
