Additionally, IGF-1R was reported to be essential for cell transformation triggered by oncogenes and tumor-virus proteins (53)
Retatrutide is investigational and targets GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors
Disrupting this pathwayeither by severing kidney sensory nerves, selectively deleting the angiotensin II type 1a receptor (AT1a) in the subfornical organ (SFO), or using optogenetics to silence the kidney-SFO or SFO-paraventricular nucleus (PVN) connectionsreduces sympathetic output, which in turn diminishes structural damage and functional impairment in the kidneys and heart in these models of CKD and heart failure (Cao et al., 2023)
At the highest doses tested, the combined targeted therapy also decreased body weight
