Scientists have gene-hacked mice to produce their own Ozempic-like enzymes, paving a path for humans to do so themselves one day. In a new study published in the journal Communications Medicine, researchers from Japan successfully gene-edited mice livers to make exenatide, a first-generation diabetes drug and predecessor to jabs like Ozempic and Mounjaro — and the mice continued to produce it for several months. Using lab mice that were obese and pre-diabetic — which sounds, we have to note, quite sad and adorable — the researchers
