Of the mammalian species, only the GLP-1 receptors of rat and human origin have been described and characterized. It is characterized by high concentrations of triglycerides and ColonBroom LDL cholesterol, and lowered HDL cholesterol in plasma, which are associated with hyperglycemia. The secondary complications like atherosclerosis and other cardiovascular diseases may be predicted with the blood concentrations of triglycerides and cholesterol, ColonBroom due to the correlation proven in clinic. The results showed that body weight, blood glucose levels, and serum levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNFα, IL-1β, and KC) were significantly greater in HFD mice than in STD mice regardless of GLP-1 drug treatment. Recent findings: Type 2 diabetes treatment with GLP-1RA liraglutide and semaglutide paved way to a ground-breaking therapy specific for obesity, as shown with the SCALE 3 mg/day liraglutide program and the STEP 2.4 mg/week semaglutide program. Soliqua 100/33 (insulin glargine and lixisenatide) is used to treat type 2 diabetes. Owing to the favorable spectrum of effects on reduction of hyperglycemia and body weight, GLP-1 mimetics are intensely pursued as therapies for the treatment of type 2 diabetes (T2DM).



High fat diet (HFD) is a type-2 diabetes risk factor that may affect the response to GLP-1 drug treatment. Objective: To review the pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, safety, and efficacy of albiglutide, a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) in type 2 diabetes (T2D). 2020 expert consensus decision pathway on novel therapies for cardiovascular risk reduction in patients with type 2 diabetes: a report of the American College of Cardiology Solution Set Oversight Committee. Two phase II clinical trials demonstrated a dose-dependent reduction in glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) of up to 1.52% compared with placebo. Clinical trials suggest that dulaglutide reduces plasma glucose, and has an insulinotropic effect increasing insulin and C-peptide levels. For a low affinity ligand like the ago-allosteric modulator Compound 2, expression levels of the human GLP-1 receptor were important for maximal efficacy as well as potency. Apart from these direct effects on lipid metabolism, GLP-1 also reduces atherosclerotic events by inhibiting expression of atherogenic inflammatory mediators, suppressing smooth muscle cell proliferation and stimulating NO production. The gut hormone, glucagon like peptide-1 (GLP-1) exerts anti-inflammatory effects. Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), is a hormone secreted by small intestine.



The GLP-1 receptor is highly conserved across species, thus underlining the physiological importance of the peptide hormone and its receptor across a wide range of mammals. Essentially, GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy, etc. are making people less hungry by altering the hunger hormones and slowing down the gut so food doesn’t move as fast, thus keeping people feeling fuller, for longer. Pharmacokinetic studies demonstrated a t1/2 in humans of up to 90 h, making dulaglutide an ideal candidate for once-weekly dosing. Its unique formulation aims to enhance your overall well-being while making your weight management journey more manageable. It can lead to a loss of muscle mass and function, which can have serious impacts on overall health and quality of life. Compared to lifestyle interventions without medications, GLP-1-assisted programmes have been shown to lead to a more clinically significant weight loss of 10% or more. Body weight was measured weekly up to 28 weeks for the chow-fed animals, while HFD-fed mice were followed for 20 weeks. The objective of the present study was to investigate the effects of diet and GLP-1 based drugs on the exocrine pancreas in mice. The semi-quantitative grading showed that pancreatic changes were significantly greater in EXE and SIT-treated mice compared to control and that HFD exacerbated spontaneous exocrine pancreatic changes seen in saline-treated mice on a standard diet.



Exocrine pancreatic changes identified in this study included acinar cell injury (hypertrophy, autophagy, apoptosis, necrosis, and atrophy), vascular injury, interstitial edema and inflammation, fat necrosis, and duct changes. These findings support HFD as a risk factor to increased susceptibility/severity for acute pancreatitis and indicate that GLP-1 drugs cause pancreatic injury that can be exacerbated in a HFD environment. About half (54%) of those who report ever taking the drugs say it was difficult to afford them, including one in five (22%) who say it was "very difficult." Having insurance coverage makes little difference to patients’ perceptions of the drugs’ affordability, with similar shares of those covered by insurance saying the drugs were difficult (53%) or very difficult (23%) to afford. Safety concerns for increased risk of pancreatitis and pancreatic ductal metaplasia have accompanied these drugs. A major reason for the cardiovascular disease risk in diabetic patients is underlying dyslipidemia, also termed as diabetic dyslipidemia.
