In hepatocellular carcinoma models induced by DEN combined with either high-fat/high-carbohydrate or low-fat/low-carbohydrate diets, lean m/db mice, and MCD- or CDE-induced liver injuryas well as in human models, exenatide activation of the GLP-1RcAMPPKAEGFRSTAT3 pathway suppressed oncogenic signaling, limited tumor cell growth, and enhanced apoptosis, resulting in a marked reduction in tumor progression (Zhou et al., 2017)
The addition of AMPLITUDE-O data refined evidence for cardiovascular benefits, in particular showing reduction in hospital admission for heart failure, and suggested exendin-4-based compounds lower risks as well as human-based GLP-1 receptor agonists, Naveed Sattar, MD, PhD, professor of metabolic medicine at the University of Glasgow in the U.K., and colleagues wrote
