Semaglutide is a synthetic peptide analog of glucagon-like peptide-1, a hormone released from intestinal L-cells after food intake. It contains 31 amino acids and differs from native GLP-1 through modifications that slow enzymatic breakdown. The peptide was developed to extend the short circulating half-life of endogenous GLP-1, which is measured in minutes. Researchers introduced the compound in the early 2010s. Two backbone changes and a fatty acid side chain define its structure, distinguishing it from earlier GLP-1 receptor agonists.
The compound binds the GLP-1 receptor on pancreatic beta cells and other tissues, activating a G-protein signaling cascade that raises intracellular cyclic AMP. This action increases glucose-dependent insulin secretion when blood glucose is elevated, while binding also slows gastric emptying and reduces glucagon release. In the central nervous system, receptor activation in the hypothalamus and brainstem contributes to reduced appetite. The fatty acid chain binds albumin, which protects the peptide from renal filtration and enzymatic degradation. This albumin binding is central to its extended circulation time.
关于降解产物的免疫原性风险,文献中仍有讨论空间。体外聚集水平与临床免疫反应之间的定量关系尚未确立。多数公开研究只报告理化指标,缺少长期随访的对应数据。这一问题在生物类似物比对中尤其受到关注。
市售注射用制剂通常要求在二至八摄氏度冷藏保存,并避免光照与冻结。部分多剂量笔在首次使用后允许在不超过三十摄氏度的环境中存放有限周数,具体期限由辅料与防腐剂体系决定。反复冻融会促进肽链聚集并改变可见颗粒计数,因此应予避免。冻干粉末在干燥、避光、低温条件下更为稳定。溶液配制后宜使用低吸附容器,以减少肽类在塑料或玻璃表面的损失。

Degradation proceeds along several parallel routes. Deamidation of asparagine and glutamine residues generates charged variants that shift retention time in chromatographic analysis. Oxidation targets methionine and can be accelerated by trace metals or dissolved oxygen. Non-covalent aggregation produces dimers, oligomers, and larger species that are difficult to reverse. Isomerisation at aspartate residues is slower but measurable under thermal stress. The distribution among these pathways depends on pH, buffer composition, ionic strength, and the presence of excipients such as sugars or surfactants.
Reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection near 214 nm is the standard purity method, reported as area percent. Mass spectrometry, usually with electrospray ionisation, confirms identity and reveals covalent modifications. Size-exclusion chromatography quantifies aggregates and fragments. Peptide mapping after enzymatic digestion localises changes to specific sequence regions. Circular dichroism and infrared spectroscopy report on secondary structure, while light scattering tracks particle formation in liquid formulations. No single technique captures every quality attribute.
Quality control relies on pharmacopoeial monographs where they exist, combined with in-house specifications for identity, purity, water content, and counter-ion composition. Reference standards allow calibration across laboratories, although certified materials for every analogue are not universally obtainable. Batch records, chromatograms, and mass spectra form the documentation trail. Regulatory classification varies by jurisdiction and intended use, and research-grade material differs from pharmaceutical-grade material in testing scope. Analytical uncertainty is often expressed as relative standard deviation across replicate injections.
Quantification and purity assessment rely on separation methods coupled to optical or mass detection. Reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography resolves the intact peptide from related impurities and is the standard assay technique. Size-exclusion chromatography measures aggregates, while ion-exchange chromatography separates charge variants produced by deamidation. Mass spectrometry confirms identity and detects mass shifts of a few daltons. In biological matrices, liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry is often used because immunoassays can cross-react with endogenous GLP-1 or with circulating fragments.
As a peptide, semaglutide is sensitive to conditions that break amide bonds or modify side chains. Deamidation of asparagine and glutamine residues, oxidation of methionine and tryptophan, and non-covalent aggregation are the main degradation routes described in published stability work. Rate depends strongly on pH, buffer species, ionic strength, temperature and exposure to light. Formulators therefore choose a defined solution pH and often add excipients such as phosphate buffer, propylene glycol and phenol, each of which plays a separate role in pH control, tonicity or preservation.
=== Other mammalian research === The largest mammal-like tracks from the Lower Cretaceous strata from Gondwana reported to date are described from the Botucatu Formation (Brazil) by Buck et al. (2026), expanding known size range of Early Cretaceous mammaliaforms. Redescription and a study on the affinities of Buginbaatar transaltaiensis is published by Lopatin & Averianov (2026). Lopatin & Averianov (2026) report the first discovery of fossil material of multituberculates belonging to the group Djadochtatherioidea from the Upper Cretaceous Nemegt Formation (Mongolia). New information on the endocranial anatomy of Kryptobaatar dashzevegi is provided by Macrini & Rowe (2026). Krause et al. (2026) identify fossil material of "Kimbetopsalis" simmonsae from the Paleocene strata of the Denver Formation (Colorado, United States), extending known geographical range of this species, and transfer the studied species to the genus Taeniolabis. Bishop & Pierce (2026) reconstruct the musculature of the forelimbs five non-therian synapsids, including Vincelestes neuquenianus.
First, the species is compatible with the main wine yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, though in cases where both MLF and alcoholic fermentation are started together, the yeast most often outcompetes the bacterium for nutritional resources which may cause a delay in the onset of malolactic fermentation. Second, most strains of O. oeni are tolerant to the low pH levels of wine and can usually deal with the standard alcohol levels that most wines reach by the end of fermentation. Additionally, while sulfur dioxide levels above 0.8 molecular SO2 (pH dependent but roughly 35-50 ppm) will inhibit the bacteria, O. oeni is relatively resistant compared to other LAB. Finally, O. oeni tends to produce the least amount of biogenic amines (and most lactic acid) among the lactic acid bacteria encountered in winemaking.
Seed oils are oils extracted from the seed, rather than the pulp or fruit, of a plant. Seed oils are characterized by the industrial process used to extract the oil from the seed and a high content of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). Critics' "hateful eight" oils consist of canola, corn, cottonseed, soy, sunflower, safflower, grapeseed, and rice bran oils, which are creations of industrialization in the early twentieth century. In the United States, cottonseed oil was developed and marketed by Procter & Gamble as the creamed shortening Crisco in 1911. The extracted oil was refined and partially hydrogenated to give a solid at room temperature and thus mimic natural lard, and canned under nitrogen gas.
Most RTGs use 238Pu, which decays with a half-life of 87.7 years. RTGs using this material therefore diminish in power output by a factor of 1 – (1/2)1/87.7, or 0.787%, per year. One example is the MHW-RTG used by the Voyager probes. In the year 2000, 23 years after production, the radioactive material inside the RTG had decreased in power by 16.6%, i.e. providing 83.4% of its initial output; starting with a capacity of 470 W, after this length of time it would have a capacity of only 392 W. A related loss of power in the Voyager RTGs is the degrading properties of the bi-metallic thermocouples used to convert thermal energy into electrical energy; the RTGs were working at about 67% of their total original capacity instead of the expected 83.4%. By the beginning of 2001, the power generated by the Voyager RTGs had dropped to 315 W for Voyager 1 and to 319 W for Voyager 2. By 2022, these numbers had dropped to around 220 W. NASA has developed a multi-mission radioisotope thermoelectric generator (MMRTG) in which the thermocouples would be made of skutterudite, a cobalt arsenide (CoAs3), which can function with a smaller temperature difference than the current tellurium-based designs. This would mean that an otherwise similar RTG would generate 25% more power at the beginning of a mission and at least 50% more after seventeen years. NASA hopes to use the design on the next New Frontiers mission.

=== In print === Acererak is the final boss of the classic Dungeons and Dragons adventure module Tomb of Horrors; Acererak was also featured as the guardian of the Copper Key in the book Ready Player One by Ernest Cline. In the webcomic The Order of the Stick, the main villain Xykon is a lich. In the Harry Potter series, the main antagonist Voldemort commands armies of undead inferi and uses magical devices called horcruxes to store fragments of his soul in order to allow him to resurrect himself in the event that his body dies.
== Etymology of anesthesia == In ancient Greek texts, such as the Hippocratic Corpus and the dialogue Timaeus, the term ἀναισθησία (anaisthēsíā) is used, which translates to "without sensation". This term is derived from the prefix ἀν- (an-), meaning "without", and αἴσθησις (aisthēsis), which means "sensation". The concept of anaisthēsia is significant in understanding the historical foundations of anesthesia and its relevance in medical practices. In 1679, Steven Blankaart published Lexicon medicum graeco-latinum with the Latin term anaisthesia. In 1684, an English translation appeared titled A Physical Dictionary, with anesthesia defined as a "defect of sensation, as in paralytic and blasted persons". Subsequently, the term and variant spellings like anæsthesia are used in medical literature signifying "insensibility". In 1846, in a letter, Oliver Wendell Holmes proposed the term anesthesia to be used for the state induced by an agent and anesthetic for the agent itself. Holmes motivates this with earlier uses of anesthesia in medical literature to mean "insensibility", particularly to "objects of touch".
== Function == G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs, or GPRs) contain 7 transmembrane domains and transduce extracellular signals through heterotrimeric G proteins. A 26-amino acid RF-amide peptide, P518 functions as a high-affinity ligand of GPR103. Both GPR103 and P518 precursor mRNA exhibited highest expression in brain. The 43-amino acid QRFP peptide, a longer form of the P518 peptide is necessary to exhibit full agonistic activity with GPR103. Intravenous administration QRFP caused release of aldosterone, suggesting that QRFP and GPR103 regulate adrenal function.

It is a synthetic analog of GLP-1 produced through medicinal chemistry to resist enzymatic degradation. The design goal was longer circulation than the native hormone.
A fatty acid side chain attaches the peptide to serum albumin, which shields it from kidney filtration and protease activity. This interaction is the main reason its circulation time is extended.
No. The native hormone is GLP-1, and semaglutide is an engineered variant with three deliberate structural alterations. It does not appear in unmodified biological sources.
