Spider veins may persist longer, sometimes requiring treatment
O-GlcNAcylation further stabilizes ACSL4, thereby promoting ferroptosis, indicating that hyperglycemia can directly activate this cell death pathway ( (xCT) and consuming GSH ( In animal models, including db/db mice, streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic models, and non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice, renal tissues show increased iron content, elevated levels of MDA and ACSL4 , and reduced GPX4 expression, which are the signature features of ferroptosis ( CPT1A )-dependent lipid metabolism ( At the clinical level, renal biopsy samples from patients with DKD exhibit iron deposition, increased lipid peroxidation, and reduced GPX4 expression ( ACSL4 is associated with a rapid decline in renal function ( 3 Pharmacological profile and anti-ferroptotic mechanisms of SGLT2 inhibitors Ferroptosis is a regulated form of cell death that can be pharmacologically modulated and has recently been regarded as an important factor in progression of DKD
As indications have expanded from diabetes to obesity, GLP-1RAs have increasingly entered routine care for women of reproductive age, including those with PCOS, in whom obesity and insulin resistance are highly prevalent (36, 38, 43)
