This premise is reinforced by the discovery that different immune cells, including B and T lymphocytes, as well as myeloid-lineage cells such as monocytes, eosinophils, and neutrophils, express GLP-1Rs ( 3.1 Innate and adaptive immune response In rat models of systemic inflammation, a GLP-1 RA, exendin, significantly lowered pro-inflammatory cytokine levels, including IL-1, IL-6, TNF-, and interferon-gamma (IFN-) ( in vitro studies, GLP-1 RAs have demonstrated the capacity of promoting an anti-inflammatory state by influencing immune cell differentiation
