The primary target is the GLP-1 receptor, a class B G protein-coupled receptor expressed on pancreatic beta cells, in the gut, and in several brain regions. Receptor activation raises intracellular cyclic AMP, which potentiates glucose-dependent insulin secretion and lowers glucagon release when blood glucose is elevated. Signalling in the hypothalamus and brainstem is associated with reduced appetite and slower gastric emptying. Because the insulinotropic effect depends on prevailing glucose levels, the hypoglycaemic risk of the peptide alone is described as low in most study settings. The relative contribution of peripheral and central actions remains an active research question.
Large randomised trials in adults with type 2 diabetes and in adults with obesity have reported reductions in body weight and improvements in several cardiovascular risk markers. One outcome trial found a lower incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events in participants with diabetes and established cardiovascular disease. Gastrointestinal effects such as nausea and vomiting are the most frequently reported adverse events and often diminish over time. Changes in lean body mass during weight loss are an area of ongoing investigation. Effects in adolescents and in pregnancy are less well characterised, and current labelling advises against use during pregnancy.
Semaglutide is a synthetic peptide analogue of glucagon-like peptide-1, a gut hormone released by intestinal L cells after food intake. The natural hormone acts on pancreatic and central receptors but is degraded within minutes by dipeptidyl peptidase-4 and other peptidases. Semaglutide belongs to the class of long-acting GLP-1 receptor agonists, a group distinguished by structural changes that slow breakdown and extend circulation time. Its development followed earlier short-acting analogues and reflects a general strategy in peptide drug design: preserve receptor activity while blocking proteolytic clearance.
Three structural changes define the molecule. At position 8 an alpha-aminoisobutyric acid residue replaces alanine, which blocks dipeptidyl peptidase-4 cleavage. At position 34 arginine replaces lysine, and at position 26 a lysine carries a C18 fatty diacid attached through a short linker. The fatty chain binds serum albumin, and this albumin association reduces renal filtration and enzymatic attack. The unchanged backbone retains the receptor contacts that produce signalling. The free base has the formula C187H291N45O59 and a molecular weight near 4114 daltons.
Receptor activation follows the canonical Gs pathway: binding increases intracellular cyclic AMP, which promotes protein kinase A activity. In pancreatic beta cells this amplifies glucose-dependent insulin release, so secretion rises when blood glucose is high and changes little when it is low. The same signalling suppresses glucagon release from alpha cells and slows gastric emptying. Receptors in the hypothalamus and brainstem are thought to contribute to reduced appetite and lower energy intake. Which of these effects dominates clinical outcomes remains an area of active study.

Receptor activation raises intracellular cyclic AMP through Gs coupling, which promotes glucose-dependent insulin release and suppresses glucagon secretion when blood glucose is elevated. Effects outside the pancreas include slower gastric emptying and altered appetite signalling in the hypothalamus and hindbrain. The relative contribution of each tissue to overall metabolic outcomes remains an area of active investigation. Central mechanisms in particular are inferred mainly from animal models and indirect human measures rather than direct observation.
Serum protein binding dominates the pharmacokinetic profile. The attached chain associates strongly with albumin, shielding the peptide from enzymatic attack and slowing filtration by the kidney. This interaction extends the circulation half-life to roughly one week in humans, which supports weekly administration intervals. An oral version pairs the peptide with an absorption enhancer that transiently alters gastric epithelium, permitting limited uptake; bioavailability by that route is substantially lower than by injection.
Semaglutide belongs to the glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist class, a group of synthetic peptides that imitate an incretin hormone released by intestinal L cells after food intake. Native GLP-1 circulates for only a few minutes because dipeptidyl peptidase-4 cleaves it rapidly. The hormone acts on pancreatic islets, the gastrointestinal tract, and several brain regions. Because the natural peptide is short-lived, development work concentrated on analogues that keep receptor activity while resisting enzymatic breakdown and renal clearance.
序列层面的改动同时解决了两个问题，即酶解稳定性与肾脏清除速度。天然 GLP-1 在循环中的半衰期仅约两分钟，主要被二肽基肽酶-4 迅速灭活。酰化侧链与白蛋白的可逆结合形成循环储库，使分子缓慢释放并持续激活受体。这种设计思路后来被广泛用于同类长效肽的开发，属于该类药物化学改造的典型范式。
Semaglutide 是一种经结构修饰的胰高血糖素样肽-1 类似物，其主链与内源性 GLP-1(7-36) 约有百分之九十四的序列一致性。第 8 位丙氨酸被 α-氨基异丁酸取代，使二肽基肽酶-4 无法识别原有切割位点。第 34 位赖氨酸换为精氨酸，进一步降低酶解速率。第 26 位赖氨酸经间隔基连接一条含十八个碳的二酸脂肪链，该侧链赋予分子与血浆白蛋白结合的能力。
该分子作为 GLP-1 受体的选择性激动剂发挥作用，受体属于 B 类 G 蛋白偶联受体家族，激活后经 Gs 通路提升细胞内环腺苷酸水平。在胰腺 β 细胞，信号促进葡萄糖依赖性的胰岛素释放，血糖偏低时该作用明显减弱。在胰岛 α 细胞，胰高血糖素分泌受到抑制。中枢神经系统与胃肠道同样存在受体表达，相应信号参与食欲调节以及胃排空速率的降低。
== History == 1. FC Lokomotive Leipzig claims to be the successor to the VfB Leipzig and SC Sportbrüder Leipzig teams, established in 1896 and 1893, respectively, and therefore, one of the oldest clubs of the German Football Association. However, they are not nominal successors. In 2018, 1. FC Lokomotive announced a merger with the formally extant but dormant VfB Leipzig in order to be entitled to the forerunner's titles. Due to the significant breaks and turmoil in the club's history, especially during the post-World War II era, their exact establishment date remains a source of contention.
Nitrogen dioxide poisoning is the illness resulting from the toxic effect of nitrogen dioxide (NO2). It usually occurs after the inhalation of the gas beyond the threshold limit value. Nitrogen dioxide is reddish-brown with a very harsh smell at high concentrations, at lower concentrations it is colorless but may still have a harsh odour. Nitrogen dioxide poisoning depends on the duration, frequency, and intensity of exposure. Nitrogen dioxide is an irritant of the mucous membrane linked with another air pollutant that causes pulmonary diseases such as obstructive lung disease, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and sometimes acute exacerbation of COPD and in some cases, death. Its poor solubility in water enhances its passage and its ability to pass through the moist oral mucosa of the respiratory tract. Like most toxic gases, the dose inhaled determines the toxicity on the respiratory tract. Occupational exposures constitute the highest risk of toxicity and domestic exposure is uncommon. Prolonged exposure to low concentration of the gas may have lethal effects, as can short-term exposure to high concentrations like chlorine gas poisoning. It is one of the major air pollutants capable of causing severe health hazards such as coronary artery disease as well as stroke. Nitrogen dioxide is often released into the environment as a byproduct of fuel combustion but rarely released by spontaneous combustion. Known sources of nitrogen dioxide gas poisoning include automobile exhaust and power stations.
=== Casting === Upon the series order announcement, Peters, Ramos, Pope, and Ashton Kutcher were cast in starring roles. Rebecca Hall was cast as part of the main cast by the time the series had begun production. In February 2025, it was reported that Isabella Rossellini had joined the cast in a recurring role. In July 2026, it was reported that the entire cast had been released so the actors can pursue other projects.

1 November – A pooled analysis indicates that globally over half of all preschool-aged children and over two-thirds of all nonpregnant women of reproductive age are deficient in at least one of three micronutrients each. The study notes required data is scarce and such deficiencies can constrain physical and (neurocognitive) development and compromise health. 2 November – Scientists show that cells move faster in thicker (higher viscosity) fluids. Cancer cells can form memory of extracellular fluid, helping them to form distant cancerous colonies more efficiently when exposed to fluids of higher viscosities. 3 November – Astronomers using the IXPE space observatory report that 4U 0142+61, a magnetar found 13,000 light-years from Earth, likely has a solid surface with no atmosphere. 4 November – The discovery of Gaia BH1, a binary system containing what is likely the closest known black hole to Earth, is reported by astronomers in the U.S. 6–18 November – The 2022 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP27) on climate change mitigation takes place in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt. 7 November The first clinical trial of laboratory-grown red blood cells transfused into people begins. Scientists warn about summarized effects of climate change on insects, among other novel stressors, which may "drastically reduce our ability to build a sustainable future based on healthy, functional ecosystems", providing several recommended mitigation options. The development of organic artificial neurons that function in and with biological systems, partly (see e.g.
=== Electrochemical sensors === Electrochemical sensors can be used for label-free sensing of biomolecules. They detect changes and measure current between a probed metal electrode and an electrolyte containing the target analyte. A known potential to the electrode is then applied from a feedback current and the resulting current can be measured. For example, one technique using electrochemical sensing includes slowly raising the voltage causing chemical species at the electrode to be oxidized or reduced. Cell current vs voltage is plotted which can ultimately identify the quantity of chemical species consumed or produced at the electrode. Fluorescent tags can be used in conjunction with electrochemical sensors for ease of detection in a biological system.
==== Psychological consequences ==== Sleep is of major importance for psychological and emotional health. As it is greatly impaired in OSA, this condition is associated with mood disorders and several psychological outcomes, especially depression and anxiety. Therefore, psychological disorders are commonly observed in OSA patients who show a higher prevalence of psychological distress, mostly due to the impaired sleep quality and structure and the repeated episodes of hypoxia. The presence of psychological disorders may also worsen the sleep disorders which implies that the psychopathology may either be a factor or a consequence of the OSA. The adverse consequences of OSA such as cardiovascular comorbidities and metabolic disturbances also play a role on the development of mental disorders, and patients with chronic condition have also been reported to have higher risk to experience depression. In OSA patients with psychiatric disorders, it is crucial to treat the OSA as it may reduce the psychiatric symptoms. Some cases of OSA are caused by nasal obstruction, which has also been related to psychological problems due to an altered ratio of calcium and magnesium in brain cells. Nasal obstruction can thus aggravate the psychological health of OSA patients. Nasal surgery for those patients might decrease the OSA severity and improve the psychological symptoms.
Glycopyrronium bromide is a medication of the muscarinic anticholinergic group. It does not cross the blood–brain barrier and consequently has few to no central effects. It can be administered orally, intravenously, topically, or via inhalation. It is a synthetic quaternary ammonium compound. The cation, which is the active moiety, is called glycopyrronium (INN) or glycopyrrolate (USAN). The most common side effects include irritability, flushing, nasal congestion, reduced secretions in the airways, dry mouth, constipation, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting, and urinary retention. In September 2012, glycopyrronium was approved for medical use in the European Union. In June 2018, glycopyrronium was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat excessive underarm sweating, becoming the first drug developed specifically to reduce excessive sweating. It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.

LTE4 >> LTC4 = LTD4 > α-ketoglutarate = itaconate. It may be difficult to determine if an OXGR1-stimulating agent elicits a functional response by activating OXGR1 as opposed to some other mechanism. To make this distinction, studies have shown that the action of an OXGR1-activating agent on cultured cells, cultured tissues, or animals does not occur or is reduced when these cells, tissues, or animals have been altered so that they do not express or express greatly reduced levels of the OXGR1 protein, or when their actions are inhibited by an OXGR1 receptor antagonists. OXGR1 is inhibited by montelukast, a well-known inhibitor of the cysteinyl leukotriene receptor 1, i.e., the receptor for LTD4, LTC4, and LTE4. Montelukast also blocks the binding of these leukotrienes to, and thereby inhibits their activation of, OXGR1. One study presented evidence suggesting that α-ketoglutarate binds to OXGR1. It is assumed that montelukast similarly blocks α-ketoglutarate's binding to, and thereby inhibits its activation of OXGR1.
There is no high-quality evidence showing that tea consumption has health effects, other than possibly increasing alertness caused by caffeine in the leaves. There is insufficient evidence that tea polyphenols have any effect on health or lowering disease risk. Black and green teas contain no essential nutrients in significant amounts, with the exception of the dietary mineral manganese, at 0.5 mg per cup or 26% of the Reference Daily Intake. Fluoride is sometimes present in tea; certain types of "brick tea", made from old leaves and stems, have the highest levels, enough to pose a health risk if too much tea is drunk, which has been attributed to high levels of fluoride in soils, acidic soils, and long brewing.

More divergent allele pairs enable presentation of a broader and less redundant repertoire of peptides, thereby potentially enhancing immune recognition. This concept, sometimes referred to as MHC or HLA evolutionary divergence, extends classical models of MHC diversity and heterozygote advantage by treating allelic variation as a continuum rather than a binary state. MHC diversity has also been suggested as a possible indicator for conservation, because large, stable populations tend to display greater MHC diversity than smaller, isolated populations. Small, fragmented populations that have experienced a population bottleneck typically have lower MHC diversity. For example, relatively low MHC diversity has been observed in the cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus), Eurasian beaver (Castor fiber), and giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca). In 2007 low MHC diversity was attributed a role in disease susceptibility in the Tasmanian devil (Sarcophilus harrisii), native to the isolated island of Tasmania, such that an antigen of a transmissible tumor, involved in devil facial tumour disease, appears to be recognized as a self antigen. To offset inbreeding, efforts to sustain genetic diversity in populations of endangered species and of captive animals have been suggested. In ray-finned fish like rainbow trout, allelic polymorphism in MHC class II is reminiscent of that in mammals and predominantly maps to the peptide binding groove.
== Pseudo-Amino Acid Composition (PseAAC) model == The primary weakness of the discrete model that relies on the amino acid composition (AAC) is that the information on the frequencies of each amino acid from the sample alone involves a loss of sequence-order information, or information obtained by the order of the amino acid residues. To avoid this information loss, the concept of PseAAC (pseudo amino acid composition) was proposed. Under this new model, the first 20 discrete factors represent amino acid frequencies are retained, but additional discrete factors are included that also ascertain information about sequence order. The sequence order information is represented by what are called "pseudo components". The number of additional components, beyond the first 20 frequencies, is called λ (or upper-case Λ), and so 20+λ components are included in the model. The upper limit for λ is one less than the length of the shortest protein sample in the dataset. The total number of components (20+λ) may be denoted Ω. Any additional factors can be incorporated so long as they, in some way, obtain or represent information about the sequence-order. Typically, these are a series of rank-different correlation factors along the protein chain. The additional factors are a series of rank-different correlation factors along a protein chain, but they can also be any combinations of other factors so long as they can reflect some sorts of sequence-order effects one way or the other.

Native GLP-1 is degraded within minutes by dipeptidyl peptidase-4 and neutral endopeptidases. Semaglutide carries a non-natural amino acid at position eight that blocks that cleavage, and a fatty diacid side chain that binds albumin. The result is a much longer duration of action than the native hormone.
The fatty diacid chain associates strongly with serum albumin, which keeps the peptide in circulation and shields it from rapid renal clearance. Bound peptide is released gradually, producing a sustained receptor signal. This mechanism also reduces the peak-to-trough variation seen with shorter-acting analogues.
The balance between peripheral receptor activation and signalling in the central nervous system is not fully resolved. The extent to which slowed gastric emptying accounts for reduced energy intake, compared with direct effects on appetite circuits, is debated. Long-term effects on lean mass and on tissues outside the gut and brain are still under study.
Native GLP-1 is a short-lived peptide cleared within one to two minutes by dipeptidyl peptidase-4 and related enzymes. Semaglutide keeps the receptor-binding backbone but adds substitutions and a lipid chain. These changes block the main cleavage site and allow reversible albumin binding, extending the half-life to roughly 165 hours.
