Abstract
Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists are a revolutionary treatment for obesity, and investigations into other uses of these agents are ongoing. Epidemiologic data suggest that prostate cancer risk may decrease following GLP-1 receptor agonist initiation. To better define the potential role of GLP-1 receptor agonist use among men with prostate cancer, we will define changes that occur in men with prostate cancer following lifestyle intervention; illuminate the current relationship between these interventions and prostate cancer risk; and explore the potential mechanism of action on tumor biology, providing rationale for evaluating its effects on prostate cancer in a planned clinical trial.
期刊介绍:
Urology is a monthly, peer–reviewed journal primarily for urologists, residents, interns, nephrologists, and other specialists interested in urology
The mission of Urology®, the "Gold Journal," is to provide practical, timely, and relevant clinical and basic science information to physicians and researchers practicing the art of urology worldwide. Urology® publishes original articles relating to adult and pediatric clinical urology as well as to clinical and basic science research. Topics in Urology® include pediatrics, surgical oncology, radiology, pathology, erectile dysfunction, infertility, incontinence, transplantation, endourology, andrology, female urology, reconstructive surgery, and medical oncology, as well as relevant basic science issues. Special features include rapid communication of important timely issues, surgeon''s workshops, interesting case reports, surgical techniques, clinical and basic science review articles, guest editorials, letters to the editor, book reviews, and historical articles in urology.
