Therapeutic Potential of Semaglutide, a Newer GLP-1 Receptor Agonist, in Abating Obesity, Non-Alcoholic Steatohepatitis and Neurodegenerative diseases: A Narrative Review
Clinical trials revealed significant weight loss with liraglutide at doses of up to 3.0 mg per day, with participants losing an average of 46 kg over 20 weeks, outperforming placebo and orlistat (38)
In vitro and in vivo studies have shown that orforglipron, as a non-peptide agonist, has a different signalling profile compared to classical GLP-1 peptide analogues - including different activity towards -arrestin
GLP-1 receptor agonistsincluding semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus), dulaglutide (Trulicity), and liraglutide (Victoza, Saxenda)are widely prescribed in the UK for type 2 diabetes and weight management
