Semaglutide is a synthetic analog of the human glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) hormone. GLP-1 is released from the intestine in response to food intake and plays a crucial role in regulating blood sugar levels. It stimulates insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells, suppresses glucagon secretion (which helps lower blood sugar levels), slows down gastric emptying, and reduces appetite.
Semaglutide works by binding to and activating GLP-1 receptors in various tissues, including pancreatic beta cells, where it enhances insulin secretion in a glucose-dependent manner. This means that semaglutide primarily acts when blood sugar levels are elevated, helping to lower them without causing hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) when levels are normal. It also suppresses glucagon secretion, which further contributes to its blood sugar-lowering effects.
