It is worth noting that the variability in agonist responses observed across different KO models may stem from differences in assay sensitivity, islet responsiveness and the physiological status of the mice, which can influence hormone responsiveness

But in some cases, Tirzepatide may be linked to gallstones, an inflamed pancreas, thyroid issues, kidney problems and other serious concerns
