Multi-Agonist Peptides

Meaning

A novel class of therapeutic agents, typically synthetic peptides, engineered to simultaneously activate multiple distinct G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) involved in metabolic and endocrine regulation. These compounds are designed to leverage the synergistic effects of engaging several signaling pathways to achieve superior clinical outcomes compared to single-target drugs. They represent a sophisticated advancement in the treatment of complex polygenic diseases like obesity and type 2 diabetes.
