Abstract
Genetic variation in the GLP-1 receptor gene (GLP1R) may be associated with insulin sensitivity and secretion in children and adolescents with overweight and obesity.
- GLP-1 is important for managing blood sugar levels and body weight.
- GLP-1 receptor agonists are used to treat type 2 diabetes and obesity.
- The study explores the potential link between GLP1R gene variations and the effectiveness of GLP-1.
- Findings could provide insights into individual responses to GLP-1 treatments.
