GLP-1R Agonism Directly Improves the Pumping Capacity of Murine Collecting Lymphatic Vessels

Mary E. Schulz, Victoria L. Akerstrom, Joseph H. Dayan, Jorge A. Castorena‐Gonzalez

This study shows GLP-1R agonism directly improves lymphatic pumping capacity in mice through vasodilation and enhanced contractile function, independent of systemic weight loss effects.
