By potentially modulating stress reactivity and improving mood regulation, GLP-1 medications might indirectly reduce alcohol-seeking behavior
Transcriptional mode of action is constitutive : ERRs occupy their DNA response elements (ERRE, 5'-TNAAGGTCA-3') and recruit transcriptional machinery even in the absence of ligand
