Shot Turns Muscle Cells Into Months-Long GLP-1 Factory
A preclinical DNA shot turned mouse muscle into a long-lasting GLP-1 source, outperforming daily semaglutide in early tests.
Trends in Biotechnology is a monthly journal that publishes innovative applications of biology as useful technologies. Our articles should describe biobased solutions to important problems and should emphasize how to engineer or adapt living systems for societal benefit. Specific application areas include human health and well-being, renewable energy, food and agriculture, natural resources, and production of bulk and fine chemicals.
