Experts attribute this difference to tirzepatide's dual-receptor mechanism, which influences not only appetite but also metabolic processes such as glucose regulation and fat utilization
For example, a recent study indicated that unlike in mouse islets where tirzepatide stimulates insulin secretion predominantly through the GLP-1R, the therapeutic effects of tirzepatide on human beta and alpha cells require engagement of both the GLP-1R and the GIPR, and in addition, tirzepatide increased glucagon secretion in isolated islets [207]
