Retatrutide is used to study integrated metabolic signaling, including GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptor pathways
Specifically, retatrutide is intended to activate the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor, the glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptor, and the glucagon receptor a combination that distinguishes it from existing approved therapies such as semaglutide (a GLP-1 receptor agonist) or tirzepatide (a dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist)
