The peptide backbone is chemically modified to resist rapid enzymatic breakdown in the body. A fatty acid side chain promotes binding to serum albumin, which slows renal clearance and supports an extended circulation time. These modifications allow less frequent administration than would be possible with an unmodified peptide. The precise contribution of glucagon receptor activation to the overall metabolic effect remains an area of active investigation, because glucagon raises glucose while also increasing energy expenditure.
Development has progressed through early- and mid-stage human studies in adults with obesity and with type 2 diabetes. Published phase 2 data reported reductions in body weight and improvements in glycemic markers over the treatment period. No regulatory agency has approved the compound for any indication, and it remains available only within controlled research settings. Whether benefits observed in trials translate into durable outcomes after treatment stops is not yet established.

Mechanistic proposals link each receptor to a different physiological role. Activation of the glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide and glucagon-like peptide-1 receptors is associated with reduced appetite, slower gastric emptying, and glucose-dependent insulin release. Glucagon receptor signaling, by contrast, is associated with increased energy expenditure and altered lipid handling, though it can also raise blood glucose. The design intent is to balance these contributions so that weight reduction is enhanced without unacceptable glycemic trade-offs. How well that balance holds across individuals is not fully resolved.
Published information places retatrutide in clinical development rather than on the market as an approved therapy. Early-stage and mid-stage trials have examined tolerability and changes in body weight, and larger studies continue to report results over time. Open questions include the durability of effects after treatment stops, the composition of weight lost, and cardiovascular outcomes over long periods. Statements about definitive benefit should therefore be treated as provisional. Regulatory status varies by jurisdiction and changes as applications are reviewed.
Retatrutide is an investigational peptide developed by a pharmaceutical company as a multi-receptor agonist for treating obesity and type 2 diabetes. The compound emerged from research into gut-hormone analogues that act on several receptors simultaneously rather than on a single target. Early preclinical work examined how combined activity at three distinct receptors might produce greater metabolic effects than single-receptor compounds. Published phase 2 results have described substantial reductions in body weight among participants, although the compound remains unapproved in most jurisdictions as of the mid-2020s.
Pharmacologically, retatrutide acts as a triple agonist at the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor, the glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide receptor, and the glucagon receptor. Activation of the first two receptors is associated with improved insulin secretion and reduced appetite. The glucagon receptor component is thought to increase energy expenditure, a mechanism that distinguishes this molecule from dual-agonist compounds. Researchers continue to investigate how the three activities interact and whether the combined profile offers advantages that justify additional clinical testing.
The intended pharmacology combines three signals in one molecule. GLP-1 receptor activation reduces appetite and slows gastric emptying, effects already exploited by approved incretin-based therapies. GIP receptor engagement is associated with improved insulin sensitivity and with direct effects on adipose tissue, although how much it contributes to overall outcomes is still debated. Glucagon receptor agonism raises energy expenditure and supports hepatic lipid handling, a mechanism that also tends to increase glucose output. The triple profile is hypothesized to produce a larger metabolic effect than single or dual agonism, but the relative weight of each receptor in humans is not settled.
Human evidence remains limited to controlled studies. A phase 2 trial in adults with obesity reported large, dose-dependent reductions in body weight over 48 weeks, with gastrointestinal events as the most frequently recorded adverse effect. Phase 3 programs designated TRIUMPH, for obesity, and TRANSCEND, for type 2 diabetes, are intended to confirm efficacy and to characterize safety in larger populations. Related studies are examining conditions such as knee osteoarthritis in people with obesity and metabolic liver disease. Open questions include long-term tolerability, effects on lean mass, and what happens after treatment is stopped.
Retatrutide is an investigational synthetic peptide that acts on three receptor targets at once: glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide, glucagon-like peptide-1, and glucagon. It is developed by Eli Lilly and appears in the literature and in trial registries under the code LY3437943. The molecule belongs to a class of engineered peptides designed to resist rapid breakdown and permit infrequent subcutaneous administration. No regulatory agency has approved it for clinical use, and all available human data come from controlled trials rather than from routine practice.
== History == In 1939, the American microbiologist René Dubos discovered the soil microbe Bacillus brevis. He observed the ability of the microbe to decompose the capsule of pneumococcus bacterium, rendering it harmless. From the soil microbe B. brevis, he isolated tyrothricin, which had a high toxicity to a large range of bacteria. Tyrothricin was later found to be a mixture of the peptides gramicidin and tyrocidine. These were observed to have toxic effects in red blood cells and reproductive cells in humans, however, if applied externally as an ointment tyrocidine could also be used as a potent antimicrobial agent. Dubos's discovery helped revive interest in research on penicillin.

Although very small amounts of berkelium were possibly produced in previous nuclear experiments, it was first intentionally synthesized, isolated and identified in December 1949 by Glenn T. Seaborg, Albert Ghiorso, Stanley Gerald Thompson, and Kenneth Street Jr. They used the 60-inch cyclotron at the University of California, Berkeley. Similar to the nearly simultaneous discovery of americium (element 95) and curium (element 96) in 1944, the new elements berkelium and californium (element 98) were both produced in 1949–1950. The name choice for element 97 followed the previous tradition of the Californian group to draw an analogy between the newly discovered actinide and the lanthanide element positioned above it in the periodic table. Previously, americium was named after a continent as its analogue europium, and curium honored scientists Marie and Pierre Curie as the lanthanide above it, gadolinium, was named after the explorer of the rare-earth elements Johan Gadolin. Thus, the discovery report by the Berkeley group reads: "It is suggested that element 97 be given the name berkelium (symbol Bk) after the city of Berkeley in a manner similar to that used in naming its chemical homologue terbium (atomic number 65) whose name was derived from the town of Ytterby, Sweden, where the rare earth minerals were first found." This tradition ended with berkelium, though, as the naming of the next discovered actinide, californium, was not related to its lanthanide analogue dysprosium, but after the discovery place.
Disagreements arose, because the brigand wanted to assault Platì and take revenge on the local liberals, unlike Borjes, who eventually gave in. The unsuccessful assault took place on September 17. The brigands and legitimists were repelled by the National Guards and a regular army unit. This failure soon ended their collaboration. On October 20 Borjes traveled to Basilicata to join his forces with those of Carmine Crocco. They achieved successes, but not the final objective, as the brigand leader refused to turn his men into a regular army. Noting the failure of the plan, the Catalan general attempted to travel to Rome to report to the Bourbon ruler. He was captured in Tagliacozzo and shot on 8 December 1861. Borjes' failure did not end brigandage, which continued with greater virulence. For this reason, the first Minghetti government promulgated the Pica law on 15 August 1863. It was a regulation that suspended constitutional guarantees for the southern provinces and imposed a state of siege. It delivered brigands to military tribunals, without appeal or defense. In Calabria the law was applied in Citeriore and Calabria Ulteriore Seconda, while the Reggio area, as was the area around Naples and part of Apulia were exempted. The Pica law remained in force until 31 December 1865, and contributed to eradicating banditry, albeit with repressive methods and without resolving the southern territories' social and economic problems. An underlying issue was latifundium (estates), which were in the hands of a few economic and political elites.

=== Blood clots === Whereas the combination of estrogen and a progestin is associated with increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) relative to estrogen alone, there is no difference in risk of VTE with the combination of estrogen and oral progesterone relative to estrogen alone. Hence, in contrast to progestins, oral progesterone added to estrogen does not appear to increase coagulation or VTE risk. The reason for the differences between progesterone and progestins in terms of VTE risk are unclear. However, they may be due to very low progesterone levels and relatively weak progestogenic effects produced by oral progesterone. In contrast to oral progesterone, non-oral progesterone—which can achieve much higher progesterone levels—has not been assessed in terms of VTE risk.
The Special Air Service (SAS) is a special forces unit of the British Army. It was founded as a regiment in 1941 by David Stirling, and in 1950 it was reconstituted as a corps. The unit specialises in a number of roles including counter-terrorism, hostage rescue, direct action and special reconnaissance. Much of the information about the SAS is highly classified, and the unit is not commented on by either the British government or the Ministry of Defence due to the secrecy and sensitivity of its operations. The corps consists of the 22 Special Air Service Regiment, which is the regular component, as well as the 21 Special Air Service Regiment (Artists) (Reserve) and the 23 Special Air Service Regiment (Reserve), which are reserve units, all under the operational command of United Kingdom Special Forces (UKSF). Its sister unit is the Royal Navy's Special Boat Service, which specialises in maritime counter-terrorism. Both units are under the operational control of the Director Special Forces. The Special Air Service traces its origins to 1941 during the Second World War. It was reformed as part of the Territorial Army in 1947, named the 21st Special Air Service Regiment (Artists Rifles). The 22nd Special Air Service Regiment, which is part of the regular army, gained fame and recognition worldwide after its televised rescue of all but two of the hostages held during the 1980 Iranian Embassy siege.

Retatrutide is an investigational synthetic peptide that activates three metabolic receptors: GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon. It is being studied for obesity and type 2 diabetes. It has not been approved for clinical use.
Earlier incretin therapies engage one or two receptors. Retatrutide adds glucagon receptor activity, which may raise energy expenditure. Whether this produces larger clinical benefits is still being tested.
It has completed phase 2 trials and moved into later-stage evaluation. No regulator has granted approval. Access outside research settings is not authorized.
