These pure peptide-based compounds, including newer items like Retatrutide for obesity studies, are being examined for their potential effects on various biological pathways and diseases
First, beta arrestins and Gaq can both internalize the GLP- 1 receptor, and multiple ligands can affect internalization
Preclinical and clinical data, though predominantly derived from case reports and small cohort studies to date, consistently indicate that GLP-1 RAs - including liraglutide, semaglutide, and the dual GIP/GLP-1 RA tirzepatide - can induce clinically meaningful weight loss, suppress the characteristic severe hyperphagia, and improve key cardiometabolic parameters in both heterozygous and homozygous MC4R variant carriers
