Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Semaglutide is a glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist. The drug decreases blood sugar levels. The decrease is theorized to be caused by the mimicking of the incretin glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1). It also appears to enhance growth of pancreatic beta cells, which are responsible for insulin production and release. Additionally, it inhibits the production of glucagon, the hormone that increases glycogenolysis (release of stored carbohydrate from the liver) and gluconeogenesis (synthesis of new glucose). It reduces food intake by lowering appetite and slowing down digestion in the stomach, helping reduce body fat.

Biological target:
By mimicking the action of the incretin glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), Semaglutide increases the production of insulin. It also appears to enhance growth of pancreatic beta cells. Additionally, it inhibits the production of glucagon.
In vitro activity:
Semaglutide protects against 6-OHDA cytotoxicity by increasing autophagy flux and decreasing oxidative stress as well as mitochondrial dysfunction in SH-SY5Y cells. Semaglutide may be represent a promising treatment for Parkinson's disease. Reference: Parkinsons Dis. 2022 Jul 13;2022:6813017. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35873704/
In vivo activity:
Semaglutide has ameliorative effect against cisplatin- induced cardiotoxicity via modulation of mitochondrial functions, dynamics, biogenesis, apoptosis, and redox status pathways. Semaglutide treatment normalized dysregulated mitochondrial function and dynamics, redox status and suppressed mitophagy and apoptosis in male rats with cisplatin-induced cardiotoxicity treated with semaglutide.
