The peptide consists of fifteen amino acids and is classified as a stable gastric pentadecapeptide due to its remarkable resistance to enzymatic degradation in the gastrointestinal tract
These, for example, include prodrug strategies, as seen in the case of OTC, which was designed to have improved bioavailability and stability (it is thought of being converted to cysteine intracellularly, which is then used for GSH synthesis) or NAC amide that has improved lipophilicity and cell permeability

GLP-1 receptors are present throughout the digestive tract, and when activated by semaglutide, they slow gastric emptyingthe rate at which food moves from the stomach into the small intestine
The two can coexist, but they are distinct
