AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Introduction: Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an endogenous peptide which is secreted by enteroendocrine L cells, GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) can exhibit glucoregulation by stimulating insulin release, promote satiety, delay gastric emptying, and reduce energy intake. Liraglutide is the only GLP-1 RA approved for the treatment of obesity. The phase III clinical study of semaglutide has completed and the result showed significant weight loss effect. GLP-1 RAs have been proven to be safe and effective in clinical trials, they are considered to be promising anti-obesity drugs.
Areas Covered: This review provides an overview of recently published patents describing modified GLP-1 RAs, multi-agonists in the treatment or prevention of obesity from January 2015 to April 2020. Moreover, small molecule GLP-1 RAs, recombinant fusion proteins, combination of GLP-1 RAs with other drugs and the preparation of GLP-1 RAs are also covered.
Expert Opinion: Currently, research on anti-obesity effect of modified GLP-1 RAs has grown significantly, liraglutide accounts for approximately 56% of the global obesity drug market. Long-acting analogues and multifunctional peptides showed good weight loss activity. As more and more clinical trials are carried out, we believe that GLP-1 RAs will occupy an important position in the market of obesity treatment.

One hallmark of cancer is the upregulation and dependency on glucose metabolism to fuel macromolecule biosynthesis and rapid proliferation. Despite significant pre-clinical effort to exploit this pathway, additional mechanistic insights are necessary to prioritize the diversity of metabolic adaptations upon acute loss of glucose metabolism. Here, we investigated a potent small molecule inhibitor to Class I glucose transporters, KL-11743, using glycolytic leukemia cell lines and patient-based model systems.

Background: Classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia, primarily due to 21-hydroxylase deficiency, leads to impaired cortisol and aldosterone production and excess adrenal androgens. Lifelong glucocorticoid therapy is required, often necessitating supraphysiological doses in youth to manage androgen excess and growth acceleration. These patients experience higher obesity rates, hypertension, and glucose metabolism issues, complicating long-term health management.

Context: The aim of this practice evaluation was to assess weight trends during and after a nutritional intervention in cancer patients and survivors.
Methods: This retrospective study was conducted between January 2014 and October 2020 in adults with different cancer types managed at the Léon-Bérard Cancer Center, undergoing treatment or during post-treatment follow-up, with a BMI≥25kg/m and who had at least 3 consultations with a nutrition physician. Nutritional management focused on behavioral, metabolic and nutritional aspects.
