An imbalanced GLP-1R/GIPR co-agonist peptide with a site-specific N-terminal PEGylation to maximize metabolic benefits

Summary: Glycemic and body weight control gained from GLP-1R agonists remains an unmet need for diabetes and obesity treatment, leading to the development of GLP-1R/GIPR co-agonists. An imbalance in GLP-1R/GIPR agonism may extensively maximize the glucose- and weight-lowering effects. Hence, we prep...
