New fat jab could shift weight without eating less
RES-010 targets the RNA molecule miR-22 to reprogram fat metabolism, showing weight loss in mice without appetite suppression and reduced weight regain risk, early research suggests.
- A new fat-burning injection named RES-010 shows promise in helping individuals lose weight while eating the same amount of food, as tested on mice at a diabetes meeting in Vienna.
- Mice given RES-010 lost weight without gaining it back after treatment stopped, unlike existing appetite-suppressing injections, which often lead to weight regain once discontinued.
- The jab works by blocking the RNA molecule miR-22, which influences how the body processes fat.
- Research indicates that RES-010 aims to change fat usage in the body and improve metabolic health.

New type of jab helps to maintain weight loss
Experts have developed a new drug which helps tackle the underlying causes of obesity. A new type of weight loss jab can help maintain weight reductions by tackling the underlying causes of obesity, scientists have said. The drug, which is called RES-010, is designed to block an RNA molecule called miR-22 – which experts have described as a “master controller” of many processes involved with obesity. These processes include how the body breaks d…
Fat burning jabs could help people lose weight - while eating the same amount - The Mirror
Early trial results suggest new drug RES-010 could help the body process food better so it doesn’t get stored as fat - but some experts suspect the new injection is too good to be true
expert reaction to an unpublished conference abstract on a new RNA-based weight loss drug aimed at altering metabolism to provide longer-term weight loss
An unpublished conference abstract presented at the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) looks at a new RNA-based weight loss drugs which aims to alter metabolism for long term weight loss. Dr Adam Collins, Associate Professor of Nutrition, University of Surrey, said: “Without a full peer-reviewed paper it is difficult to comment on the study however, I would be wary of claims of “reprogramming metabolism”. “I think mechanist…
