One study has shown that induced neuropathy can be reversed via the administration of GLP-1 and its agonist, exendin-4 [60]
Thus, as illustrated in Figure 2, the peptide backbone was modified at position 8 only, where Ala was substituted with Aib, previously shown to be resistant to DPP-IV cleavage and have high GLP-1R affinity ( Figure 2 A systematic test of derivatives from C12 to C20 fatty acids showed that a C18 di-acid together with a Glu-2xOEG linker resulted in the highest albumin affinity combined with GLP-1R potency
The review revisited SUSTAIN-6, where semaglutide-treated patients showed a hazard ratio of 1.76 for retinopathy complications compared with placebo. The discussion has since shifted toward whether rapid metabolic changerather than direct retinal toxicitymay explain the signal
Many patients do well long-term at 5 to 10 mg tirzepatide or 1.0 to 1.7 mg semaglutide
