Semaglutide acetate

Description

Semaglutide acetate is a long-acting, selective, competitive GLP-1R agonist that can penetrate the blood-brain barrier. After activating GLP-1R, Semaglutide acetate promotes insulin secretion, inhibits gastric emptying and appetite, and at the same time enhances autophagy, inhibits oxidative stress and apoptosis. Semaglutide acetate also regulates mitochondrial function and lipid metabolism such as reducing de novo lipogenesis in the liver . Semaglutide acetate has activities such as lowering blood sugar, reducing weight, neuroprotection such as improving motor function in Parkinsons disease models, reducing ?-synuclein aggregation and improving hepatic steatosis. Semaglutide acetate can be used for the study of neurodegenerative diseases and liver diseases such as type 2 diabetes, obesity, Parkinsons disease, metabolic associated fatty liver disease MASLD , and cancer.
