Trechos de apoio da pauta: Scientists at The Wistar Institute have shown that a single injection of a small, circular piece of genetic instruction can produce weight loss and blood glucose control in murine models that lasts up to 10 times as long as incretin-mimicking drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy. If shown to be successful in clinical trials, this new method of delivery could eliminate the need for repeated dosing, which currently limits patient access and adherence to these therapies.
