Pegozafermin Is a Potential Master Therapeutic Regulator in Metabolic Disorders: A Review.

Pegozafermin (PGZ), a novel glycopegylated version of human fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21), has demonstrated potential for addressing metabolic comorbidities, including severe hypertriglyceridemia, insulin resistance, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, and obesity.
