Clinical studies have demonstrated that GLP-1 receptor agonists can reduce various inflammatory biomarkers , including: C-reactive protein (CRP) : A general marker of systemic inflammation Interleukin-6 (IL-6) : A pro-inflammatory cytokine Tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-) : Another key inflammatory mediator Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) : Associated with cardiovascular inflammation The magnitude of these effects varies between studies and may depend on baseline inflammatory status, degree of weight loss achieved, and individual patient characteristics
