Tirzepatide — Dual GIP/GLP-1 Agonist
Tirzepatide is one of the most studied compounds in research on metabolic regulation, energy balance and appetite control. Its peptide structure acts simultaneously on two hormone receptors — GIP and GLP-1 — making it one of the compounds of greatest interest in metabolic research models over the last decade.
The GLP-1 receptor (glucagon-like peptide-1) is associated with the regulation of satiety, slowing of gastric emptying and satiety signalling to the central nervous system. The GIP receptor (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) is involved in glucose utilisation and post-prandial energy balance. The simultaneous activation of these two receptors is what sets Tirzepatide apart from other compounds in the same class in comparative studies.
