The GLP-1R arm drives the central appetite suppression, delayed gastric emptying, and glucose-dependent insulin secretion familiar from semaglutide and tirzepatide 24
White adipose tissue (WAT) tends to proliferate under conditions of reduced physical activity, exposure to thermoneutral environments, consumption of calorie-rich diets, decreased levels of saturated free fatty acids, imbalance of leptin and adiponectin hormone levels, and increased interleukin-6 (IL-6)
And there are side effects to consider
Association of cardiovascular health level in older age with cognitive decline and incident dementia
Alternatively, preclinical studies using leptin-deficient animals ( ob/ob mice) demonstrated that restoring plasma leptin concentration to normal improved heart function after MI, and that these beneficial effects were associated with reductions in cardiac inflammation and apoptosis [13, 14] and activation of anti-hypertrophic pathways in obese animals with left ventricle (LV) hypertrophy [8]
