To assess the effects of the novel GLP-1-gastrin dual agonist ZP3022 on glycaemic control, islet mass, and β-cell mass in diabetic db/db mice.
Treated diabetic db/db mouse models with either the novel dual agonist ZP3022 or a vehicle control.
Evaluated glycaemic parameters alongside quantitative changes in pancreatic islet and β-cell mass.
Pancreatic islet and β-cell mass increased significantly following ZP3022 administration compared with vehicle.
ZP3022 treatment resulted in improved glycaemic control and prevented diabetes progression in db/db mice.

Implication

Preclinical study demonstrates improved glycaemic control and increased beta-cell mass in db/db mice treated with ZP3022, suggesting therapeutic potential for diabetes.

Abstract

The novel GLP-1-gastrin dual agonist, ZP3022, improved glycaemic control in db/db mice, and pancreatic islet and β-cell mass increased significantly following treatment with ZP3022 compared with vehicle.
