Unlike semaglutide (a GLP-1 receptor agonist) or tirzepatide (a GIP/GLP-1 dual agonist), retatrutide simultaneously activates three hormone receptors : GLP-1 receptor (GLP-1R): Reduces appetite, slows gastric emptying, stimulates insulin secretion GIP receptor (GIPR): Enhances GLP-1-mediated effects, may reduce nausea, promotes fat utilization Glucagon receptor (GCGR): Increases energy expenditure, promotes lipolysis (fat breakdown), and appears to amplify weight loss beyond what GLP-1/GIP dual agonism achieves The triple mechanism is the key differentiator
161 In summary, dual and triple agonists related to GLP-1 represent significant advances in the field of diabetes treatment, 167,168 demonstrating the future trend of enhancing therapeutic effects by targeting multiple biomarkers
