Semaglutide doesn't work for everyone and can have side effects, but a study in mice may point to a solution.
A study in mice offers hope that there could be a way to make weight loss drugs like Ozempic more effective with fewer side effects.The weight loss drugs that have become wildly popular in recent years could become more effective in the future, including a possible reduction in side effects, new research suggests.
But these drugs don’t work for everybody, and they can come with some unpleasant and even dangerous side effects.of semaglutide’s effectiveness in weight loss found that seven out of 12 male test subjects responded to the drug, compared to 24 out of 28 women. That same study found that over half the test subjects showed some kind of adverse reaction, such as nausea, constipation, abdominal pain, or diarrhea, though in most cases those side effects were classified as mild to moderate.

New fluorescent reporting system illuminates accumulation of unfolded proteins in endoplasmic reticulumThe endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a major organelle responsible for protein folding and trafficking. Protein folding stress in the ER can lead to the accumulation of unfolded or misfolded proteins, known as ER stress, which activates the unfolded protein response (UPR). However, UPR can also be activated in the absence of ER stress.
