Liraglutide dictates macrophage phenotype in apolipoprotein E null mice during early atherosclerosis

BACKGROUND: Macrophages play a pivotal role in atherosclerotic plaque development. Recent evidence has suggested the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonist, liraglutide, can attenuate pro-inflammatory responses in macrophages. We hypothesized that liraglutide could limit atherosclerosis p...
