Below are some of the projects carried out in the main application domains
Beyond pancreatic effects, GLP-1R agonists exert widespread extra-pancreatic benefits, attributed to the extensive distribution of GLP-1R in different organs, including gastrointestinal tract, kidneys, liver, skeletal and smooth muscle, neural tract, adipose tissue, and the cardiovascular system, where they are expressed in endothelial cells, vascular smooth muscle, cardiomyocytes, and different inflammatory cells [20], underpinning the synthetic GLP-1 and GLP-1RAs associated cardiovascular benefits observed in clinics [21]
Side effects of hormone replacement therapy (HRT)
