The medication is administered once weekly via subcutaneous injection using a pre-filled pen device, available in doses of 2.5 mg, 5 mg, 7.5 mg, 10 mg, 12.5 mg, and 15 mg, allowing for gradual dose escalation to optimise tolerability
Thus, activating GLP-1R could also reduce histone lactylation by inhibiting the expression of p300
