Emerging GLP-1 receptor agonists
Recently, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonists have become available for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. These agents exploit the physiological effects of GLP-1, which is able to address several of the pathophysiological features of type 2 diabetes.

Adverse effects of GLP – 1 Receptor Agonists [PDF]
Introduction and purpose Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP – 1 RAs) are indicated in type 2 diabetes (T2D) and obesity because of their high efficacy in controlling blood glucose levels and inducing weight loss.

Future Perspectives on GLP-1 Receptor Agonists and GLP-1/glucagon Receptor Co-agonists in the Treatment of NAFLD [PDF]
Along the obesity pandemic, the prevalence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), often regarded as the hepatic manifestation of the metabolic syndrome, increases worldwide representing now the prevalent liver disease in western countries. No pharmacotherapy is approved for the treatment of NAFLD and, currently, the cornerstone treatment is ...

GLP-1 Receptor Agonists in Heart Failure
Heart failure (HF) is a growing public health concern, driven by the increasing prevalence of obesity, diabetes, and aging. Despite therapeutic advances, HF continues to be associated with high morbidity and mortality. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs), originally developed for glycemic control in type 2 diabetes, have demonstrated ...

The binding and activation of the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor by exendin-4 [PDF]
Background and purpose Exendin-4 (EX4) has the same physiological properties as glucagon-like peptide-1 (7-36)amide (GLP-1). EX4 has 50% identity with GLP-1, with an extra nine amino acids at its C-terminus.

Drugs developed to treat diabetes, liraglutide and lixisenatide, cross the blood brain barrier and enhance neurogenesis [PDF]
Background Type 2 diabetes is a risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD), most likely linked to an impairment of insulin signalling in the brain. Therefore, drugs that enhance insulin signalling may have therapeutic potential for AD. Liraglutide (Victoza)

Safety and Efficacy of GLP-1 Receptor Agonists in Adults With Epilepsy, Obesity, and Type 2 Diabetes. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objective Managing obesity in patients with epilepsy is complicated by the weight‐gaining properties of essential antiseizure medications (ASMs) such as valproate and pregabalin. We evaluated the safety and efficacy of initiating glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1 RAs) in this population.

The Cardiovascular Effects of GLP‐1 Receptor Agonists [PDF]
SUMMARYGlucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor (GLP‐1R) agonists have been shown to regulate blood glucose concentrations by mechanisms including enhanced insulin synthesis/secretion, suppressed glucagon secretion, slowed gastric emptying, and enhanced satiety.
