GLP-1 receptor agonist suppresses fatty infiltration while improving range of motion and electromyographic function in a chronic rotator cuff tear rat model

Key Points

• Rotator cuff tear treatment showed improved range of motion and reduced fatty infiltration.
• The study reported significant enhancements in electromyographic function following GLP-1 receptor agonist treatment.
• Assessment using a chronic rotator cuff tear rat model revealed promising results with ongoing therapeutic implications.
• These findings suggest the potential for GLP-1 receptor agonists in rotator cuff rehabilitation, although more studies in humans are needed.
