Mechanism of Action: How GLP-1s Work Semaglutide and other GLP-1 receptor agonists help lower blood sugar and support weight loss by mimicking a naturally occurring hormone called GLP-1.4 They do this by activating GLP-1 receptors in the stomach, brain, and pancreas.5 When these receptors are activated, they signal the pancreas to release insulin when blood sugar levels are high, slow down digestion to help control appetite, and reduce the release of glucagon, a hormone that raises blood sugar
In contrast, selective inhibitors targeting each enzyme can block its activity at defined time points and in a dose-dependent manner, enabling more refined experimental control
