So it amplifies the signal that the GLP-1 is going to get at the lock part, or the receptor part
GLP-1 receptor activation inhibits the activation of hepatic Kupffer cells and infiltrating macrophages, leading to decreased production of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF- and IL-1, thereby attenuating hepatic inflammation ( Preclinical models have shown that GLP-1 analogs suppress hepatic stellate cell activation, the key drivers of fibrogenesis, resulting in reduced collagen deposition and fibrosis ( Clinical trials that investigate dual GLP-1/GIP receptor agonists have presented encouraging evidence for their efficacy and safety in treating MASLD
Those deals are part of a new Most Favored Nation (MFN) policy that ties the cost of GLP-1RAs in the U.S
