GLP-1 research peptides: a factual overview
Semaglutide, Tirzepatide and Retatrutide are peptides studied in scientific research on the GLP-1 system.
What GLP-1 is
GLP-1 stands for glucagon-like peptide 1, a hormone produced by the body that plays a role in metabolism. Several research peptides are designed to act on receptors within this system and are therefore studied in laboratory research.
Three known names
Semaglutide acts on the GLP-1 receptor. Tirzepatide targets two receptors, GLP-1 and GIP. Retatrutide is described as a molecule acting on three receptors, GLP-1, GIP and glucagon. This classification is purely descriptive.
