RPEP-11662Moderateprospective-observational

Glycemic Improvement with Low-Dose Dulaglutide Is Associated with Leptin and Obestatin Modulation in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus.

Jung, Inha · 2025

Decreases in leptin and increases in obestatin independently predicted HbA1c reduction with dulaglutide, while changes in BMI or abdominal fat were not associated with glycemic improvement.

Effect of GLP-1 Receptor Agonist on Ischemia Reperfusion Injury in Rats with Metabolic Syndrome.

Ravic, Marko · 2024

After 6 weeks of treatment in rats with metabolic syndrome: - Exenatide improved ejection fraction by 3% vs untreated MetS group - Dulaglutide improved ejection fraction by 7% vs untreated MetS group - Histology showed reduced cardiomyocyte cross-sectional area: 11% reduction with exenatide, 18% with dulaglutide - Both drugs reduced oxidative stress biomarkers - Dulaglutide showed a slight advantage overall.

RPEP-09141Preliminaryanimal study

Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) plus glucagon-like peptide type 1 receptor combination is more effective than SGLT2i plus dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor combination in treating obese mice metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD).

Reis-Barbosa, Pedro H · 2024

High-fat diet versus control: liver triglycerides increased 82%, steatosis increased 850%, glucose intolerance increased 71%, insulin increased 98%, and insulin resistance increased 68%. Both drug combinations improved all parameters compared to untreated obese mice: - Empagliflozin + linagliptin: glucose intolerance -60%, insulin -61%, insulin resistance -46%, TAG -61%, steatosis -58% - Empagliflozin + dulaglutide: glucose intolerance -71%, insulin -58%, insulin resistance -62%, TAG -61%, steatosis -82% Principal component analysis clearly separated the groups: the GLP-1 combination was furthest from the disease group, while the DPP-4 combination fell between control and the GLP-1 group..
