Description
CAGRILINTIDE
For Research Use Only | Not for Human or Veterinary Use
Description:
Cagrilintide is a long-acting acylated amylin analogue under investigation for its role in metabolic regulation, obesity research, and type 2 diabetes studies. It mimics the activity of endogenous amylin, a peptide hormone co-secreted with insulin from pancreatic beta cells, by promoting satiety signaling and reducing food intake. Cagrilintide’s fatty acid acylation confers an extended half-life enabling once-weekly administration in research settings, making it a key compound in next-generation metabolic peptide research.
