Why Muscle Loss Happens on GLP-1 Therapy GLP-1 receptor agonists work by reducing appetite and slowing gastric emptying, which naturally leads to reduced calorie intake
Indeed, there may be synergy between FGF-21 and GCG receptor agonism, due to their similar metabolic actions, particularly related to brown adipose tissue differentiation and activation [32], with FGF21 having additional actions in the liver, reducing hepatic lipogenesis and enhancing hepatic insulin sensitivity [66, 67]
