Glepaglutide (ZP1848), a long-acting GLP-2 analogue, is a potent GLP-2R agonist. Glepaglutide reduces faecal output and increases intestinal absorption. Glepaglutide alleviates small intestinal inflammation. Glepaglutide can be used in the research of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and Crohn’s disease[1][2][3].
