Abstract

Key drug targets for metabolic diseases include PPARs, AMPK, and gut microbiota-derived SCFAs.

  • PPARs are associated with improving insulin resistance.
  • AMPK plays a role in regulating energy metabolism.
  • Innovative drugs like GLP-1 receptor agonists and SGLT2 inhibitors show efficacy in glycemic control and liver protection.
  • AI and CRISPR technologies may accelerate drug development.
  • Interindividual variability in microbiota presents challenges for treatment.
  • Long-term safety of new drugs is still under investigation.
