  1. Potential Role of Glucagon-like Peptide-1 Receptor Agonists in the Treatment of Cognitive Decline and Dementia in Diabetes Mellitus

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 43 out of 100. International journal of molecular sciences 2023-07-11 Drug development

    Dementia is a permanent illness characterized by mental instability, memory loss, and cognitive decline.

  2. Resveratrol Modulates the Gut-Brain Axis: Focus on Glucagon-Like Peptide-1, 5-HT, and Gut Microbiota

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 41 out of 100. Frontiers in aging neuroscience 2020-11-24 Drug development

    Resveratrol is a natural polyphenol that has anti-aging and anti-inflammatory properties against stress condition.

  3. Sitagliptin protects the cognition function of the Alzheimer's disease mice through activating glucagon-like peptide-1 and BDNF-TrkB signalings

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. Neuroscience letters 2018-12-28 Drug development

    Sitagliptin treatment effectively protected the cognition function of the AD mice by regulating synaptic plasticity, at least partially, through activating GLP-1 and BDNF-TrkB signalings.

  4. Glucagon-like peptide-1 mediates effects of oral galactose in streptozotocin-induced rat model of sporadic Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. Neuropharmacology 2018-02-28 Drug development

    Insulin resistance and metabolic dysfunction in the brain are considered to be the pathophysiological core of sporadic Alzheimer's disease (sAD).

  5. Blast traumatic brain injury-induced cognitive deficits are attenuated by preinjury or postinjury treatment with the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist, exendin-4

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Alzheimer's & dementia : the journal of the Alzheimer's Association 2015-08-29 Drug development

    The present data suggest shared pathologic processes between concussive and B-TBI, with end points amenable to beneficial therapeutic manipulation by Ex-4.

  6. Our previous study has proved that glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), which is developed to treat type 2 diabetes, has a significant effect on neuroprotection against advanced glycation end product (AGE)-induced neuronal insult in vitro models of diabetes-related Alzheimer's disease (AD).

  7. Encapsulated native and glucagon-like peptide-1 transfected human mesenchymal stem cells in a transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Neuroscience letters 2011-04-12 Drug development

    Encapsulated human mesenchymal stem cells(MSC) are studied in a double transgenic mouse model of Alzheimer's disease (AD) after intraventricular implantation at 3 months of age.
