It can improve muscle fiber composition, leading to greater strength and power
This also suggests that GLP-1RAs with distinct rates of receptor internalisation and lysosomal targeting might differentially regulate the kinetics of this engagement, so that slow GLP-1R internalising compounds are expected to trigger initially reduced VAPB interactions, which might however paradoxically result in prolonged VAPB engagement over time, and therefore potentially lead to sustained ER signalling, as these biased compounds are also associated with reduced lysosomal degradation from the pool of internalised receptors 18,24
Individual case reports or patient experiences may occasionally describe lymph node swelling during tirzepatide treatment, but such occurrences do not necessarily indicate causation
Insulin sensitizers: For patients with insulin resistance, medications such as metformin can be prescribed to improve insulin sensitivity, leading to better glucose control
