MOTS-c activates AMPK through the AICAR accumulation pathway described earlier
Researchers were finding that unstable nutrient supply through intermittent fasting, which we can see mimicked in GLP-1 users, can cause a release of reactive oxidative species within your hair stem cell environment, which can actually cause cell death for your hair follicle stem cells. Follicular cell death is probably not something any of us had on our bingo cards for potential GLP-1 side effects
Similarly, in mesangial cells, GLP-1 receptor agonists have been shown to suppress either high-glucose-induced or AGEs-induced pro-fibrotic signalling pathways, including NF-B activation and TGF-1 expression, leading to reduced ECM deposition [60,61], and to suppress their proliferation via AMPK activation [62]

Thats especially true with weekly GLP1 injections, where timing affects how the medication builds up and tapers off throughout the week
