Where GLP-1 Receptors Are Located: Pancreas (insulin and glucagon regulation) Stomach (slowing emptying) Brain (appetite control) Heart (cardiovascular benefits) Liver (glucose production regulation) How Tirzepatide Works: Dual GIP and GLP-1 Receptor Activation: Tirzepatide activates two hormone receptors instead of one, creating a more comprehensive metabolic effect: GLP-1 Effects (Same as Semaglutide): Increased insulin secretion Decreased glucagon production Slowed gastric emptying Reduced appetite through brain signaling Enhanced satiety Additional GIP Effects: GIP (glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) adds complementary benefits: Enhanced Insulin Response: GIP amplifies insulin secretion even more than GLP-1 alone, particularly after meals when blood sugar is elevated
Deterministic streamline tractography 54 was performed on DSI-reconstructed data
T2D 7 077 984/QALY), no retreatment (Scenario 1, initial treatment course only) yielded 6 131 873/QALY (non-T2D) and 11 015 920/QALY (T2D)
