Abstract

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) necessitates lifelong insulin therapy due to the autoimmune destruction of insulin-producing pancreatic beta cells. Despite advancements in diabetes technology and insulin formulations, maintaining optimal glycemic outcomes remains challenging in these individuals. Obesity, accompanied by insulin resistance, is common not only in type 2 diabetes (T2D) but also in many individuals with T1D. Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs), approved for T2D and obesity, are now being explored for off-label use in individuals with T1D. This review examines their efficacy, safety, and potential benefits in T1D management. We reviewed articles published up to May 2024 from databases like PubMed and Scopus, mainly focusing on human studies of GLP-1 RAs in T1D, as well as cardiorenal and metabolic outcomes in individuals with T2D and obesity. Semaglutide and other GLP-1 RAs showed significant improvements in glycemic outcomes, hemoglobin A1c levels, reduced insulin doses, and notable weight loss. Studies in individuals with obesity and T2D showed significant improvements in lipid profile and offered cardiorenal protection. Common side effects include gastrointestinal issues, and while some studies reported hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, and ketosis, others did not. Despite these challenges, GLP-1 RAs offer significant therapeutic benefits, making them a promising adjunct to insulin therapy for improving clinical outcomes in T1D management.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Diabetes Science and Technology (JDST) is a bi-monthly, peer-reviewed scientific journal published by the Diabetes Technology Society. JDST covers scientific and clinical aspects of diabetes technology including glucose monitoring, insulin and metabolic peptide delivery, the artificial pancreas, digital health, precision medicine, social media, cybersecurity, software for modeling, physiologic monitoring, technology for managing obesity, and diagnostic tests of glycation. The journal also covers the development and use of mobile applications and wireless communication, as well as bioengineered tools such as MEMS, new biomaterials, and nanotechnology to develop new sensors. Articles in JDST cover both basic research and clinical applications of technologies being developed to help people with diabetes.
