GLP-1 Receptor Activation: Suppresses appetite through direct action on brain hunger centers Slows gastric emptying, promoting prolonged satiety after meals Enhances glucose-dependent insulin secretion Reduces glucagon secretion, lowering hepatic glucose output GIP Receptor Activation: Improves insulin sensitivity in peripheral tissues Enhances beta-cell function in the pancreas Influences adipose tissue biology, potentially improving how the body stores and mobilizes fat May contribute to improved nutrient partitioning Research published in Cell Metabolism has shown that GIP receptor signaling plays important roles in fat tissue metabolism and energy homeostasis that go beyond what GLP-1 alone can achieve (Campbell & Drucker, 2015)
