How does both glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) agonism and GIP antagonism result in protection from diet induced obesity (DIO)?

Lead Research Organisation: Imperial College London
Department Name: Metabolism, Digestion and Reproduction

Abstract

This research will help reconcile the findings that both GIP agonism and GIP antagonism results in protection from DIO. This study will expand our knowledge on GIP's mechanistic actions, which is vitally important in terms of the design of GIP agonists and GIP-GLP-1 dual agonists for optimized weight loss.
