Semaglutide is administered as a once-weekly subcutaneous injection, meaning it's injected just under the skin, usually in the stomach, thigh, or upper arm
In addition to protecting dopaminergic neurons by affecting iron metabolism, LF enhances the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) through the extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK)cAMP response element-binding protein (CREB) pathway and HIF-1-dependent mechanisms to reverse the movement disorders caused by PD
