Crucially, the development of generics will also increase the quantity of GLP-1 drugs made each year
For example, under conditions of OGD, the local concentration of lactate increases, which triggers astrocyte responses by upregulating N-Myc downstream-regulated gene 2 (NDRG2) to alleviate the inflammatory state [136]
