Unexpectedly, Mcp1 mRNA levels that were found highly elevated in the MCD group were only partly decreased by the Fc-GLP-1 treatment (Fig

However, the sharp demand for these products and the lack of FDA approval of compounded GLP-1 is raising concerns about the safety, effectiveness, and consistency of these medications, which have grown popular for weight loss

Rectal body temperature Conscious mice were restrained and a high-precision thermometer (BIO-TK8851, Bioseblab) was carefully inserted half-way into the rectum

A pilot study (study 3: 0.3 and 3 mg/kg, orally once daily) and a complete varied dose study (study 4: 0.1, 0.5, 2.5 and 12.5 mg/kg, oral once daily) in ob/ob for 30 days

Comparison of treatments was done on a within-subject level (each mouse was its own control) and at least 1 week elapsed between each testing condition (drug or control treatment)
