GLP-SM — Semaglutide (GLP-1 Agonist)

Long-acting GLP-1 receptor agonist · supplied as 5mg lyophilised powder

≥99% Purity
CoA Available

GLP-SM is a long-acting, acylated GLP-1 receptor agonist with high structural homology to endogenous human GLP-1. Albumin binding and amino-acid substitutions confer an extended half-life, making it a widely used reference in GLP-1 receptor biology, metabolic disease models, and related cardiovascular research.

What is GLP-SM?

GLP-SM is a synthetic analogue of human glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) engineered for resistance to DPP-4 cleavage and prolonged circulation. As a GLP-1 receptor agonist it models glucose-dependent insulin secretion, glucagon suppression, slowed gastric emptying, and central satiety signalling - with an extended duration of action suited to weekly-style dosing protocols in research.

Research Background

This compound class has one of the largest published evidence bases among GLP-1 receptor agonists. Representative research themes include:

  • Glycaemic control: Documented HbA1c and fasting glucose improvements in controlled trials.
  • Body composition: Substantial weight reduction in obesity study populations at higher doses.
  • Cardiovascular markers: Outcomes trials reporting MACE reduction in high-risk cohorts.
  • Hepatic fat: Reductions in steatosis markers in NAFLD/NASH research models.
  • Neuroscience: Ongoing investigation of GLP-1R pathways in neurodegeneration models.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does GLP-SM achieve its long half-life?

DPP-4–resistant substitutions and reversible albumin binding via an acyl chain extend plasma half-life to roughly one week in clinical-style protocols.

How does GLP-SM compare to GLP-TZ?

GLP-SM is a GLP-1 monoagonist. GLP-TZ co-activates GIP receptors; many studies report stronger metabolic endpoints with dual agonism than with GLP-1 alone.

Is a Certificate of Analysis provided?

Yes. A CoA documenting batch purity and specifications is available for every batch on request.
