GLP-1s have been shown to interact with these pathways, potentially improving neurotransmitter signaling, enhancing focus and impulse control
A similar effect is achieved by increasing the insulin receptor sensitivity, which may be the basis for treating insulin resistance because, this way, a larger amount of glucose could enter the cells and be converted into energy
Why it matters: A number without monitoring rules can be misleading
The proton-motive force created by the ETC is also used for many additional mitochondrial processes, especially those related with transport across the IMM ( Although the primary function of mitochondria is to generate ATP as an energy molecule required for countless cell functions, a small fraction of electrons from the ETC are transferred directly to O 2 , resulting in the generation of the superoxide anion, which can give rise to other ROS as well as reactive nitrogen species (RNS)
