Abstract
Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP1Ra) are widely used for the management of obesity and cardiometabolic disease. While causing robust weight loss, GLP1Ra also result in reductions in lean tissue, including skeletal muscle and bone. The purpose of the current review is to discuss key findings demonstrating the effects of GLP1Ra treatment on skeletal muscle and bone, approaches that have been implemented to mitigate these changes, and to highlight important areas of future research.
期刊介绍:
The American Journal of Physiology-Cell Physiology is dedicated to innovative approaches to the study of cell and molecular physiology. Contributions that use cellular and molecular approaches to shed light on mechanisms of physiological control at higher levels of organization also appear regularly. Manuscripts dealing with the structure and function of cell membranes, contractile systems, cellular organelles, and membrane channels, transporters, and pumps are encouraged. Studies dealing with integrated regulation of cellular function, including mechanisms of signal transduction, development, gene expression, cell-to-cell interactions, and the cell physiology of pathophysiological states, are also eagerly sought. Interdisciplinary studies that apply the approaches of biochemistry, biophysics, molecular biology, morphology, and immunology to the determination of new principles in cell physiology are especially welcome.
