Glp1r expression determined by RNAscope in situ hybridization reveals the highest expression in duodenal Brunners glands and in stomach gland parietal cells (Wismann et al., 2017)
Semaglutide works by: Enhancing insulin secretion in a glucose-dependent manner, which helps regulate blood sugar levels Suppressing glucagon release , reducing hepatic glucose output Slowing gastric emptying , which prolongs satiety and reduces appetite Acting on appetite centres in the brain , particularly the hypothalamus, to reduce hunger and food intake These combined effects led to significant weight loss in clinical trials (STEP programme), typically in the range of 1015% of body weight over 68 weeks, though individual results vary considerably
