Addiction is a chronic relapsing disease with high morbidity and mortality. Treatments for addiction include pharmacological psychosocial interventions; however, currently available medications are limited in number efficacy. The glucagon-like-peptide-1 (GLP-1) system emerging as potential novel pharmacotherapeutic target alcohol other substance use disorders (ASUDs). In this review, we summarize discuss the wealth of evidence from testing GLP-1 receptor (GLP-1R) agonist preclinical models humans ASUDs, possible mechanisms underlying impact GLP-1R agonists on alcohol/substance use, gaps knowledge, future directions.

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) is abundant in the circulation, and it well-known to regulate glucose homeostasis, feeding, body weight. GLP-1 receptor agonists are therefore approved for treating type 2 diabetes obesity. However, more recent research has demonstrated that acts within brain modulate reward responses, thereby highlighting as a potential target addiction. Specifically, preclinical studies decrease alcohol intake, reduce motivation consume alcohol, prevent relapse drinking by potentially lowering alcohol-induced reward. These results have been confirmed extended human which intake patients with use disorder (AUD) who regular weight or comorbidity of obesity diabetes. On similar note, genetic variations genes encoding associated AUD heavy drinking. The central mechanisms regulates alcohol-related behaviors not fully defined, but may involve areas well regions projecting these areas, such nucleus tractus solitarius brainstem. Together, existing clinical data suggest involved process implies its role tentative treatment AUD.

Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a chronic relapsing condition that poses global health challenges. In 2019, alcohol accounted for approximately 2.6 million deaths worldwide, representing 4.7% of all deaths.1 Addiction pathogenesis involves neurobiological and psychosocial factors altering the brain's reward system within mesolimbic dopamine pathway. increases release, reinforcing substance-seeking behaviour transitioning from voluntary to compulsive with impaired executive function.2 Treatments AUD include behavioural, motivational, pharmacological interventions. Medications approved disulfiram, naltrexone, acamprosate. However, relapse rate 70% first year treatment.3 preclinical animal studies, glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs), such as liraglutide semaglutide, reduced intake attenuated alcohol-induced behaviours.4 These agents modulate circuitry by decreasing release in response thereby reducing motivation consume alcohol.

Perioperative neurocognitive disorder (PND) is a common neurological complication after surgery/anesthesia in elderly patients that affect postoperative outcome and long-term quality of life, which increases the cost family social resources. The pathological mechanism PND complex not fully understood, methods prevention treatment are very limited, so it particularly important to analyze PND. Research indicates mitochondrial dysfunction pivotal initiation progression PND, although precise mechanisms remain elusive could involve disrupted mitophagy. We reviewed recent studies on link between mitophagy highlighting role key proteins abnormal discussing therapeutic strategies aimed at regulation. This provides insights into underlying potential targets.

Methods A total 151 male dependence who were discharged from Substance Dependence Department Wenzhou Seventh People’s Hospital January to December 2020 selected. They divided into control ( n = 73) and experimental 78) groups. Patients in both groups received routine cessation treatment. Moreover, group followed up by professional psychiatrist carry out individual intervention. The Family Function Rating Scale (FAD), Self-made general information questionnaire, version Intimacy Adaptability (FACESI-CV) performed. Re-drinking readmission assessed. Results could reduce (31, 39.74%) rehospitalization (27, 34.62%) compared group.
