PMID: Summary Keywords biologic therapy, early psoriatic arthritis, GLP-1 receptor agonists, inflammation, metabolic syndrome, psoriasis Citation Ciancio G, Maranini B, Sandri G, Amati G, Bortoluzzi A, Silvagni E, Govoni M and Giuggioli D (2026) Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists in psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis: emerging evidence and future research opportunities
When Ipamorelin binds to GHS-R1a, it triggers an intracellular signaling cascade: Receptor activation Ipamorelin binds the GHS-R1a receptor on pituitary somatotrophs Phospholipase C pathway Gq/11 protein coupling activates PLC, generating IP3 and DAG Calcium mobilization IP3-mediated calcium release from intracellular stores triggers GH vesicle exocytosis Pulsatile GH release Growth hormone is released in a physiological pulsatile pattern, preserving hypothalamic feedback A critical distinction in Ipamorelin's mechanism is that it preserves the hypothalamic-pituitary feedback axis
