Summary

The glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP1R) is a class B G protein-coupled receptor activated by GLP-1 and GIP incretin hormones. In the brain, GLP1R activation promotes neuroprotection, reduces neuroinflammation, enhances synaptic plasticity, and improves mitochondrial function. GLP-1 receptor agonists (semaglutide, liraglutide, tirzepatide) are being investigated as disease-modifying therapies for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.
