The other activates three metabolic receptors simultaneously, suppressing appetite, improving insulin sensitivity, and ramping up energy expenditure
They are also nonselective drugs, which means that they not only act on melanocytes, increasing pigment production, but also in other cells involved in sexual function, energy homeostasis, immune function, and cardiovascular function

The expression of intestinal endocrine Lcells is regulated by several key receptors activated by short chain fatty acids (SCFAs), specific endogenous cannabinoids and bile acids, and the activation of these receptors increases the secretion of key intestinal peptides, such as GLP-1, GLP-2 and polypeptide YY (PYY) ( in vitro , leading to an increase in GLP-1 release (Petersen et al., 2014)
The longer duration may have allowed compensatory mechanisms to develop
