The non-standard residues in its sequence (Aib, D-2-Nal, D-Phe) confer metabolic stability against peptidase degradation and constrain the bioactive conformation
It creates a protective microenvironment around the peptide, temporarily buffering the local pH and enhancing membrane permeability
It might seem counterintuitive, but because they work through completely independent mechanisms, their effects can be complementary, or even synergistic
