Tirzepatide
10 mg
Dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist for metabolic research.
Overview
Tirzepatide is a dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist developed for the study of glucose-dependent insulin secretion and weight regulation pathways.
Mechanism of Action
Tirzepatide engages GIP and GLP-1 receptors on pancreatic β-cells, potentiating glucose-stimulated insulin release while modulating glucagon secretion. Central GLP-1R activation in hindbrain nuclei contributes to satiety signaling.
