Semaglutide has a molecular weight of approximately 4,114 daltons
Our data not only unveils a previously unknown pathway of ERMCS-localised GPCR signalling into mitochondria, potentially applicable to other GPCRs beyond the GLP-1R, but also opens the door to further roles of the GLP-1R in the regulation of mitochondrial lipid metabolism, a process tightly linked to changes in mitochondrial morphology governed by MICOS complex activity 10
Given the costs typically associated with injectable weight-management therapies and existing NHS prescribing frameworks, access if approved may initially be limited to specific patient groups meeting defined clinical criteria, as has been the case with other agents in this class
