ABSTRACT: Background
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disorder that disrupts normal bone remodeling.Objectives
This study aimed to investigate how the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist liraglutide (LIR) addresses bone metabolism imbalances induced by type-II diabetes.Methods
Type-II diabetic rat models were established through a single intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ). Blood glucose levels were measured using a blood glucose meter, and insulin levels were assessed using an assay kit. Bone formation markers [alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteocalcin (OCN), and procollagen I N-terminal propeptide (PINP)] and bone resorption markers [tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRACP) and CTX-1] were monitored using assay kits.
