GIP (glucose-dependent insulin nutritive polypeptide); GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor

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]

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]

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]

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]

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]

Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
Over the dose range of 1-5 mg, the Cmax of tirzepatide ranged from 108 to 397 ng/mL. The mean absolute bioavailability of tirzepatide following subcutaneous administration is 80%. Following subcutaneous administration, the Tmax ranged from eight to 72 hours. The steady-state plasma concentrations were achieved following four weeks of once-weekly subcutaneous administration. As tirzepatide delays gastric emptying, it has the potential to affect the absorption of concomitantly administered oral medications. The US prescribing information recommends the use of caution when co-administering tirzepatide with other oral medications.
Tirzepatide is primarily excreted via urine and feces, mostly in the form of metabolites. Unchanged parent drug was not detectable in urine and feces.
Following subcutaneous administration, the mean steady-state volume of distribution was 9.5 L. The mean apparent steady-state volume of distribution of tirzepatide following subcutaneous administration in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus was approximately 10.3 L.
The apparent population mean clearance of tirzepatide is 0.061 L/h. The mean steady-state apparent clearance of tirzepatide was 0.056 L/h.

Metabolism / Metabolites
Tirzepatide is metabolized by proteolytic cleavage of the peptide backbone, beta-oxidation of the C20 fatty diacid moiety, and amide hydrolysis.

---

Biological Half-Life
The half-life is approximately five days.

Hepatotoxicity
In preregistration clinical trials, serum aminotransferase elevations of greater than 3 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) arose in less than 1% of patients during therapy with tirzepatide and similar rates occurred in placebo recipients and in comparator arm groups. In studies of more than 5,000 patients, there were no reports of severe liver test abnormalities or clinically apparent liver injury attributable to tirzepatide. However, tirzepatide has been associated with a slightly higher rate of acute gallbladder disease (cholelithiasis, biliary cholic and cholecystectomy) reported in 0.6% of treated patients vs none of placebo-treated patients. Gallbladder conditions are mentioned in the warning section of the product label for tirzepatide.
Likelihood score: E (unlikely cause of clinically apparent liver injury).

Effects During Pregnancy and Lactation
◉ Summary of Use during Lactation
No information is available on the clinical use of tirzepatide during breastfeeding. Because tirzepatide is a large peptide molecule with a molecular weight of 4814 Da, the amount in milk is likely to be low and absorption is unlikely because it is probably partially destroyed in the infant's gastrointestinal tract. Until more data become available, tirzepatide should be used with caution during breastfeeding, especially while nursing a newborn or preterm infant.

◈ What is tirzepatide?
Tirzepatide is a medication that has been used to improve blood sugar control in adults with type 2 diabetes. It is available as an injection (given by shot). The injectable form is sold under the brand name Mounjaro®.Tirzepatide can also be used as an injection to treat obesity. A brand name for tirzepatide used for weight management is Zepbound®. Weight loss is not recommended during pregnancy. If you are using Zepound®, talk with your healthcare providers before making any changes to how you take your medication. Your healthcare providers can talk with you about the benefits of treating your condition and the risks of untreated illness during pregnancy.Obesity and elevated blood glucose can make it harder to get pregnant, and increase the chance of miscarriage, birth defects, or other pregnancy complications. MotherToBaby has fact sheets on diabetes https://mothertobaby.org/fact-sheets/type-1-and-type-2-diabetes/ and obesity https://mothertobaby.org/fact-sheets/obesity-pregnancy/.The product label for tirzepatide states the use of this medication might change the way oral contraceptives (birth control pills used to prevent pregnancy) are absorbed by the body. This might increase the chance of pregnancy, even if the oral birth control is taken correctly and consistently. The product label suggests people using oral contraceptives switch to a non-oral birth control or add a barrier method of contraception (like condoms) for 4 weeks after starting the medication and for 4 weeks after each increase in dose. If you are taking this medication, talk with your healthcare provider about non-oral birth control and all your options for preventing a pregnancy.
◈ I am taking tirzepatide, but I would like to stop taking it before getting pregnant. How long does the drug stay in my body?
The time it takes to metabolize (break down) medication is not the same for everyone. In healthy adults, it can take up to 30 days, on average, for most of the tirzepatide to be gone from the body.
◈ I take tirzepatide. Can it make it harder for me to get pregnant?
It is not known if tirzepatide can make it harder to get pregnant.
◈ Does taking tirzepatide increase the chance of miscarriage?
Miscarriage is common and can occur in any pregnancy for many different reasons. Studies have not been done in humans to see if tirzepatide can increase the chance of miscarriage.
◈ Does taking tirzepatide increase the chance of birth defects?
Every pregnancy starts out with a 3-5% chance of having a birth defect. This is called the background risk. Research studies have not been done to see if tirzepatide increases the chance of birth defects in humans. In animal studies, an increased chance for some birth defects was seen. However, it is unclear if these birth defects were due to the medication or other factors in the study (such as weight loss). Diabetes with unmet glucose goals or targets in pregnancy can increase the chance of birth defects. It is important that diabetes is managed during pregnancy and glucose levels stay in your goal/target range throughout pregnancy.
◈ Does taking tirzepatide in pregnancy increase the chance of other pregnancy-related problems?
Human studies have not been done to see if tirzepatide can increase the chance of pregnancy-related problems such as preterm delivery (birth before week 37) or low birth weight (weighing less than 5 pounds, 8 ounces [2500 grams] at birth). Animal studies reported a decrease in the weight of the offspring after exposure to tirzepatide in pregnancy. It is unclear if this was due to the medication, weight loss in the mother, or other factors. Diabetes with unmet glucose goals/targets in pregnancy can increase the chance of pregnancy complications.
◈ Does taking tirzepatide in pregnancy affect future behavior or learning for the child?
Studies have not been done to see if tirzepatide can increase the chance of behavior or learning issues for the child.
◈ Breastfeeding while taking tirzepatide:
There is no available information about tirzepatide and human milk. Because it is a large molecule, tirzepatide is not expected to get into breastmilk in large amounts. Also, the medication is likely to break down in the infant's gastrointestinal tract and not be well-absorbed by the infant. Be sure to talk to your healthcare provider about all your breastfeeding questions.
◈ If a male takes tirzepatide, could it affect fertility or increase the chance of birth defects?
Studies have not been done in humans to see if tirzepatide could affect male fertility (ability to get partner pregnant) or increase the chance of birth defects above the background risk. There were no changes in male fertility reported in one animal study. In general, exposures that fathers or sperm donors have are unlikely to increase risks to a pregnancy. For more information, please see the MotherToBaby fact sheet Paternal Exposures at https://mothertobaby.org/fact-sheets/paternal-exposures-pregnancy/.

Pharmacodynamics
Tirzepatide is a synthetic peptide with glucose-lowering effects. It works to stimulate first- and second-phase insulin secretion, and reduces glucagon levels, both in a glucose-dependent manner. Tirzepatide was also shown to delay gastric emptying, lower fasting and postprandial glucose concentration, decrease food intake, and reduce body weight in patients with type 2 diabetes. Tirzepatide can increase insulin sensitivity. As the peptide is conjugated to a C20 fatty diacid moiety through a hydrophilic linker at the lysine residue at position 20, the drug is highly bound to albumin in the plasma, which prolongs its half-life.
