Both liraglutide and semaglutide have been shown to reduce obesity-induced muscle atrophy via a GLP-1/Sirtuin (SIRT1) pathway in rodents ( in vitro models
7) and induced ERK-CREB signaling activation, contributing to both Gcg and Vgf upregulation (Supplementary Fig
The closest thing to magic today is a GLP-1, says Dr
Its high selectivity makes it a cost-effective option for targeted experiments where minimizing off-target effects is a top priority

Busetto concludes: "In this analysis of individuals with obesity aged 65 years and older, semaglutide reduced body weight and improved cardiometabolic risk factors compared with placebo, and the safety and efficacy profile of semaglutide was consistent with that reported in the STEP program." He adds: "In many countries, including many high-income countries, the majority of the cases of excess weight actually occur in adults aged 65 years and over, representing a major driver for obesity-related complications and an important cause of reduced quality of life and disability
