To locate the IPL voxel we: (a) located the voxel four slices above the last axial view of the ventricles and the first view after the ventricles in the coronal plane, (b) placed one side parallel to the occipito-parietal sulcus, (c) moved the voxel toward the axial midline of the left hemisphere and (d) in the sagittal plane, located it parallel to the inferior parietal sulcus and inspected that this was mostly covered
In the future, GLP-1 receptor agonists may also play a role in the management of nondiabetic patients with obesity
However, it has been recently described that mTORC2 also possesses tyrosine phosphorylation capacity [118], and that it phosphorylates tyrosines on IRS and tyrosine kinases in both receptors, IGF-1 and IR, thus reinstituting the signal of the activated receptors [118]
Biological target: Restoration of youthful pulsatile GH release, which declines by approximately 14% per decade after age 30
