=== Chemical Properties ===
GL-II-73 acts as an agonist at the GLP-1R, a [[G protein-coupled receptor]] that is expressed in various tissues, including the [[pancreas]], [[brain]], and [[heart]]. Activation of GLP-1R by GL-II-73 stimulates the release of insulin from the pancreas, which helps to lower blood glucose levels. This makes GL-II-73 a potential candidate for the treatment of [[type 2 diabetes]].
