Tirzepatide is a novel dual agonist targeting both the glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) receptor and the glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor. This dual mechanism has demonstrated enhanced glycemic control and weight reduction compared to single-receptor agonists in preclinical and clinical research. It is used as a research tool in type 2 diabetes, obesity, and metabolic syndrome models.
