  1. 01AnimalAnimal study (in vivo)Mechanism

    In SDT fatty rats with type 2 diabetes, liraglutide increased citrate synthase activity in the soleus muscle, independently of blood glucose and blood pressure.

    In plain wordsIn rats with type 2 diabetes, liraglutide raised a marker of mitochondrial content in a leg muscle.

    Summary
    In the soleus of SDT fatty rats, liraglutide led to greater citrate synthase activity and cytochrome c oxidase subunit 5 B protein expression, independently of blood glucose and blood pressure levels.
