It belongs to a novel class of agents known as triple agonists , meaning it simultaneously activates three distinct hormone receptors: GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) stimulates insulin secretion, reduces appetite, and slows gastric emptying [7] [8] GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) enhances insulin release and may improve fat metabolism Glucagon receptor increases energy expenditure and promotes fat breakdown (lipolysis)
Abstract Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) have shown promise in preclinical models of neurodegeneration, with emerging evidence suggesting these effects may be driven by modulation of neuroinflammation
