Traditional interventions, including lifestyle modifications, often fall short of achieving sustainable weight loss, ultimately leading to surgical interventions, which carry a significant burden and side effects. This necessitates the exploration of effective and relatively tolerable pharmacological alternatives. Among emerging therapeutic avenues, glucagon-based treatments have garnered attention for their potential to modulate metabolic pathways and regulate appetite. This paper discusses current research on the physiological mechanisms underlying obesity and the role of glucagon in energy homeostasis. Glucagon, traditionally recognized for its glycemic control functions, has emerged as a promising target for obesity management due to its multifaceted effects on metabolism, appetite regulation, and energy expenditure. This review focuses on the pharmacological landscape, encompassing single and dual agonist therapies targeting glucagon receptors (GcgRs), glucagon-like peptide-1 receptors (GLP-1Rs), glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide receptors (GIPRs), amylin, triiodothyronine, fibroblast growth factor 21, and peptide tyrosine tyrosine. Moreover, novel triple-agonist therapies that simultaneously target GLP-1R, GIPR, and GcgR show promise in augmenting further metabolic benefits. This review paper tries to summarize key findings from preclinical and clinical studies, elucidating the mechanisms of action, safety profiles, and therapeutic potential of glucagon-based therapies in combating obesity and its comorbidities. Additionally, it explores ongoing research endeavors, including phase III trials, aimed at further validating the efficacy and safety of these innovative treatment modalities.</p>","PeriodicalId":17334,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Endocrine Society","volume":"8 12","pages":"bvae197"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11579655/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142687472","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

TBT exerts these effects in part by increasing the number and size of white adipocytes, altering the fate of multipotent mesenchymal stromal stem cells to favor the adipocyte lineage, altering adipokine secretion, and modulating chromatin structure. Adipose tissue resident macrophages are critical regulators in adipose tissue; however, the effects of TBT on adipose tissue macrophages remained unclear. Here we investigated the effects of TBT on macrophages and consequent impacts on adipocyte function. TBT significantly enhanced palmitate-induced inflammatory gene expression in mouse bone marrow derived macrophages and this effect was attenuated by the antagonizing action of the nuclear receptor peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma. TBT-treated macrophages decreased lipid accumulation in white adipocytes differentiated from mesenchymal stromal stem cells accompanied by increased expression of lipolysis genes. Lastly, ancestral TBT exposure increased <i>Tnf</i> expression in adipose tissue resident macrophages in both exposed (F2) and unexposed (F3) generations, suggesting that TBT exposure led to an inherited predisposition toward inflammatory adipose tissue macrophages that can manipulate adipose tissue function.
