In GH-deficient animal models (hypothalamic lesion or hypophysectomy), IGF-1 LR3 fully rescues skeletal muscle protein synthesis (SUnSET +24-30% vs hypophysectomised vehicle), while CJC-1295 has no effect (no pituitary somatotrophs to respond)
Semaglutide binds to GLP-1 receptors in the brain, particularly in areas controlling appetite such as the hypothalamus, leading to increased feelings of fullness (satiety) and reduced hunger between meals
