Recent advances in obesity pharmacotherapy, particularly with glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonists (RAs), have the potential to transform obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) care by promoting marked weight loss, improving glycaemic control and addressing multiple obesity‐related comorbidities, with added cardio‐renal benefits. Dual agonists combining GLP‐1 with other enteropancreatic hormones such as glucose‐dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) have also been developed in recent years, leading to greater weight loss than using GLP‐1 RAs alone. However, up to 40% of the weight lost with GLP‐1 RAs comes from lean body mass, raising concerns about potential adverse effects on skeletal muscle function. Mitochondrial dysfunction, characterized by reduced mitochondrial size and activity, is prevalent in individuals with obesity and T2DM and is a known contributor to muscle wasting in ageing and some chronic diseases. This systematic review investigates the impact of GLP‐1‐based therapies on skeletal muscle mitochondrial function in individuals with obesity and T2DM or in related animal and cell models.MethodsA comprehensive search of MEDLINE, Scopus, CINAHL and <jats:ext-link xmlns:xlink=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink\" xlink:href=\"http://clinicaltrials.gov\">clinicaltrials.gov</jats:ext-link> was conducted. Inclusion criteria included randomized controlled trials, randomized crossover trials, cluster randomized control trials and basic science studies involving any GLP‐1 RA or GLP‐1/GIP dual agonist. Outcomes of interest were skeletal muscle respiratory function either in the form of measurements of mass, number, content, oxidative capacity/respiratory function, mitochondrial dynamics, mitochondrial biogenesis and mitophagy.ResultsEight studies were eligible for analysis; no human studies were identified. All of the included studies used GLP‐1 RAs (single agonists) as intervention. The emerging evidence suggests that GLP‐1 RAs increase mitochondrial area, number and morphology (i.e., reduces swelling). Data are conflicting on the effect of GLP‐1 RAs upon mitochondrial mass, respiration and the expression of uncoupling proteins and PGC‐1α. Data also demonstrate muscle specific (i.e., soleus vs. extensor digitorum longus) responses to GLP‐1 RAs.ConclusionGLP‐1 RAs appear to have a positive effect upon mitochondria area, number and morphology, but effects upon other aspects of mitochondrial health remain inconclusive. Data are very limited and solely presented in animal and in vitro models. Future studies should be conducted in human populations in order to begin to understand the effect of GLP‐1 RAs and GLP‐1‐based therapies on human skeletal muscle mitochondria.","PeriodicalId":186,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle","volume":"64 17 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":8.9,"publicationDate":"2025-01-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142986196","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sarcopenia is a major cause of decreased muscle strength, physical frailty and increased muscle fatigability, contributing significantly to an increased risk of physical disability and functional dependence among the elderly. There remains a significant need for a novel therapy that can improve sarcopenia and related problems in aging. Iron accumulation, especially catalytic iron (labile iron) through increased oxidative stress, could be one of the contributing factors to sarcopenia. Our study aimed to examine the effect of an iron chelator on age‐related sarcopenia in mice.MethodsWe investigated the effect of iron chelation (deferiprone, DFP) in sarcopenia, using mice with klotho deficiency (<jats:italic>kl/kl</jats:italic>), an established mouse model for aging. Four weeks old Klotho <jats:sup>−/−</jats:sup> male mice were treated with 25 mg/kg body weight of iron chelator deferiprone in drinking water for 8–14 weeks (<jats:italic>n</jats:italic> = 12/group, treated and untreated). At the end of the study, gastrocnemius, quadriceps and bicep muscles were dissected and used for western blot and immunohistochemistry analysis, histopathology and iron staining. Serum total iron, catalytic iron and cytokine ELISAs were performed with established methods.ResultsTreatment with DFP significantly reduced loss of muscle mass in gastrocnemius and quadriceps muscles (<jats:italic>p</jats:italic> < 0.0001). Total and catalytic iron content of serum and iron in muscles were significantly (both <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> < 0.0001) lower in the treated animals. The inhibitory factor of myogenesis, the myostatin protein in gastrocnemius muscles (<jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.019) and serum (<jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.003) were downregulated after 8 weeks of therapy accompanied by an increased in muscle contractile protein myosin heavy chain (~2.9 folds, <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.0004). Treatment decreased inflammation (serum IL6 and TNFα) (<jats:italic>p</jats:italic> < 0.0001, <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.005), respectively, and elevated insulin‐like growth factor levels (<jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.472).

While these interventions are highly successful in preventing adverse neuropsychiatric complications, their long‐ term consequences are incompletely explored. We observed early cardiomyopathic characteristics and associated hemodynamic changes in adult PKU patients and present here the results of a longitudinal evaluation of cardiac phenotype.MethodsFifteen adult patients with PKU (age: 39.8 ± 8.1 years, 9 males and 6 females) underwent a comprehensive follow‐up cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging assessment after a mean follow‐up interval of 8.3 ± 0.3 years from the initial baseline visit. The CMR protocol included left (LV) and right (RV) ventricular and left atrial (LA) volumetric assessment, LV parametric mapping (precontrast and postcontrast T1 and T2 maps, extracellular volume [ECV]), multilayer LV myocardial strain, systolic and diastolic hemodynamic forces and RV and LA strain and aortic distensibility evaluation. Plasma concentrations of Phe, tyrosine (Tyr) and other biochemical markers of disease were retrospectively collected. For comparison, a group of 20 matched control subjects undergoing an identical CMR protocol was included.ResultsOn average, the LV end‐diastolic volume (EDV) (158 ± 29 vs. 143 ± 29 mL, <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.013) and end‐systolic volume (ESV) (68 ± 18 vs. 62 ± 18 mL, <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.011) were lower at follow‐up.

LV EF (57 ± 6 vs. 57 ± 7%, <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.90), longitudinal (GLS) and circumferential (GCS) systolic strain remained unchanged, but early diastolic hemodynamic (HD) forces were more markedly negative (−19.4 ± 7.0 vs. −26.5 ± 12.2%, <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.012), while LA strain 43.8 ± 11.3 vs. 37.3 ± 9.6%, <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.031) and aortic distensibility (6.38 ± 1.75 vs. 5.21 ± 1.17 10<jats:sup>−3</jats:sup> mmHg<jats:sup>−1</jats:sup>, <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.008) decreased at follow‐up.
