GLP-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) are transforming the treatment of obesity and diabetes (and more). Our recent pre-print examined next-gen small molecules mimicking GLP-1, using humanized mouse models to uncover how they interact with brain circuits driving food consumption. 1/

A recent Northwestern Medicine study led by Lisa Beutler, MD, PhD, assistant professor of Medicine in the Division of Endocrinology, Metabolism and Molecular Medicine, identified novel neural circuits modulated by the diabetes and obesity medications semaglutide and tirzepatide that help suppress appetite. Hear Dr. Beutler explain these findings further: lnkd.in/g2pHhjxy

It turns out today is the humanized "Glp1rS33W" rodent model day. Here is another one published today by Eli Lilly and Company @EliLillyandCo science.org/doi/10.1126/scit… Didn't know... we could have had a party 😉🥳🎉

The pharmacological basis for nonpeptide agonism of the GLP-1 receptor by orforglipron

Studies reveal pharmacological characteristics for activating the GLP-1 receptor with a nonpeptide agonist.
