Complex metabolic protection as a modern strategy for the management of type 2 diabetes mellitus

Abstract

The primary task of managing patients with type 2 diabetes meLLitus is complex cardiometabolic protection, which can be implemented by including innovative drugs in therapy: agonists of glucagonlike peptide-1 receptors and inhibitors of type 2 sodium glucose cotransporter. The review pays great attention to the high conjugation of disorders of carbohydrate metabolism and overweight, the role of adipose tissue adipokines in the regulation of pathological adipostat. The most relevant data concerning the mechanism of action, multiple pleiotropic effects, the evidence base of the most recent glucagon-like peptide 1 agonist, semaglutide, with an emphasis on positive modification of cardiovascular prognosis and reduction of excess body weight are presented. The obvious additional advantage of this molecule is its high safety profile and comfortable dosing schedule - once a week.

Keywords:semaglutide, cardiovascular diseases, adipose tissue, body weight
