ln Vitro |
Tirzepatide (LY3298176) demonstrates noticeably higher efficacy than dulaglutide in terms of weight loss and glucose control[1]. Tirzepatide is an imbalanced agonist of the GIPR and GLP-1R and shows biased signaling at the GLP-1R.Tirzepatide differentially induces internalization of the GIPR versus the GLP-1R.[2]

ln Vivo |
Tirzepatide (LY3298176) has shown better efficacy than dulaglutide in terms of glycemic control and weight loss [1].With chronic administration to mice, LY3298176 potently decreased body weight and food intake; these effects were significantly greater than the effects of a GLP-1 receptor agonist. [3]
Tirzepatide significantly improved impaired glucose tolerance, fasting blood glucose level, and insulin level in diabetic rats. Then, tirzepatide dramatically alleviated spatial learning and memory impairment, inhibited Aβ accumulation, prevented structural damage, boosted the synthesis of synaptic proteins and increased dendritic spines formation in diabetic hippocampus. Furthermore, some aberrant changes in signal molecules concerning inflammation signaling pathways were normalized after tirzepatide treatment in diabetic rats. Finally, PI3K/Akt/GSK3β signaling pathway was restored by tirzepatide.[4]

Enzyme Assay |
Competition binding with human GLP-1(7-36)NH2, GIP(1-42), tirzepatide, and semaglutide was performed essentially as described for homologous competition except that the assay buffer was 1.0 mM MgCl2, 2.5 mM CaCl2, 0.003% w/v Tween-20, 0.1% w/v bacitracin in 25 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, final concentrations with one Complete EDTA free protease inhibitor tablet added per 50 mL of buffer. Using GraphPad Prism 7 software, Bmax values for [125I]GLP-1(7-36)NH2 or [125I]GIP(1-42) binding to GLP-1R and GIPR membranes were determined by nonlinear regression analysis using the amount bound versus the concentration of competing homologous peptide added. The Bmax was used to calculate the number of receptors per cell. For competing peptides, Ki values were determined by nonlinear regression analysis using the amount of [125I]GLP-1(7-36)NH2 or [125I]GIP(1-42) bound versus the concentration of peptide added.[2]

Cell Assay |
HEK293 cells stably expressing HA-GIPR-EFGP or HA–GLP-1R–EFGP clones were plated into poly-D-lysine–coated 96-well microplates and cultured until cells reached 80%–90% confluency. On the day of assay, growth media was removed, and cells were rinsed once with prewarmed starvation media (growth media without serum or antibiotics, supplemented with 0.1% casein) and equilibrated with fresh media for 1 hour at 37°C, 5% CO2. Concentration response curves of GLP-1, GIP, and tirzepatide were prepared in prewarmed starvation media, added to cells for designated times, and incubated at 37°C. At the end of the study, media was removed, and cells were placed on ice and fixed with Prefer fixative (Anatech) for 10 minutes. Fixative was removed, and cells were washed in PBS and blocked with Odyssey blocking buffer (Licor) for 1 hour. Cells were incubated with anti-HA/DyLight800 antibody (1:700) (Rockland Immunochemicals, 600-445-384) for 1 hour followed by washes with PBS-T. Plates were scanned using a Licor Clx scanner with the 800 nm channel laser to capture fluorescence signal in each well. Data were normalized to maximum concentrations of GLP-1 or GIP (100%) and no ligand (0%) and analyzed by nonlinear regression (sigmoidal concentration-response) and plotted using GraphPad Prism 7 software.[2]

Animal Protocol |
High fat diet and streptozotocin injection-induced diabetic rats were injected intraperitoneally with Tirzepatide (1.35 mg/kg) once a week. The protective effects were assessed using the Morris water maze test, immunofluorescence, and Western blot analysis. Golgi staining was adopted for quantified dendritic spines.[4]
Male Sprague Dawley rats weighing between 180 and 200 g (aged 7–8 weeks) were raised in Specific Pathogen Free (SPF) conditions with a light/dark cycle of 12 h/12 h and temperature–humidity (22°C ± 1°C, 50% ± 10%) controlled. All procedures were approved by the Animal Care and Use Committee of Hubei University of Science and Technology, Xianning, China (IACUC Number: 2021-03-003). Animal care and handling were performed according to the Declaration of management of laboratory animals regarding the care and use of laboratory animals. After 2 weeks adaptation with normal diet, a total of 32 rats were fed with HF diet (67.5% standard laboratory rat chow, 20% sugar, 10% lard, 2% cholesterol and 0.5% bile salts), while 24 rats were raised by standard chow. According to our previous study, 35 mg/kg STZ was injected by intraperitoneal injection in the rats of HF diet group, whereas normal group were injected with citrate buffer only. After 2 weeks feeding, 31 rats with a fasting blood glucose levels reaching 11.0 mmol/L were randomly divided into two experimental groups as follows: diabetes mellitus group (DM), DM + Tirzepatide group (Tirzepatide, 1.35 mg/kg, once a week). At the same time, 24 rats of standard chow group were randomly divided into control group (Con) and Con + Tirzepatide group (Tirzepatide, 1.35 mg/kg, once a week). All drugs were prepared preserving more than 1 year under given conditions avoiding degradation. Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) was performed on the 13th week. Behavioral test was conducted before the sacrificed week. Fasting blood glucose and body weight were measured weekly until the sacrificed week. In the 15th week, all rats were sacrificed and collected samples which were executed follow-up experiments. A timeline of experimental procedure is presented in Figure 1A.[4] |
