Alternatively, cholesterol can be oxidized into oxysterols which later impact the TME by promoting immunosuppression and assist tumor metastasis (Xia et al., 2021)
GLP-1 medications, used to treat primarily obesity and diabetes, reduce inflammation indirectly through weight reduction, neuronal GLP-1 receptor (GLP-1R) activation, and directly through T cell activation
If 5 mg per week is producing the weight loss outcomes you want, staying there is perfectly reasonable
The weight-loss effect of GLP-1RAs also benefits NASH improvement, by reducing appetite and increasing energy expenditure to promote weight loss, thereby indirectly ameliorating NASH.206,512 Thus, GLP-1 and its agonists slow down the progression of NASH and may positively impact the reversal of liver fibrosis.513,514 These signaling pathways suggest that GLP-1 and its receptor agonists may influence the progression of NASH through multiple mechanisms, providing several potential therapeutic targets including: FOXO1, a transcription factor that plays a critical role in regulating glucose and lipid metabolism
This slowdown makes it harder for these cells to burn accumulating fat
Three protein-containing meals per day is a reasonable target
