Cagrilintide in Stock Hot Selling 99% Purity CAS 1415456-99-3 Cagrilintide Safe Delivery Manufacturer Supply Raw Material GLP Weight Loss Tirze Sema Retatrutide

Cagrilintide is an amylin-analog, now being developed in combination with the GLP-1 agonist semaglutide to achieve sustained weight loss in persons with overweight and obesity. This drug is an investigational therapy that reduced body weight in a phase 2 trial when administered as monotherapy in participants without diabetes and with a BMI of at least 30 kg/m2 or at least 27 kg/m2 with hypertension or dyslipidaemia.

Mechanism of action

Cagrilintide, a non-selective agonist, is designed for weekly subcutaneous injection at low pH. It is based on the h-amylin backbone, drawing inspiration from calcitonin, and exhibits a prolonged action profile, likely attributed to reversible albumin binding similar to semaglutide. This amylin analog is currently under development in combination with the GLP-1 agonist semaglutide to achieve sustained weight loss in individuals with overweight and obesity. Amylin, co-secreted with insulin from pancreatic beta cells, exerts its satiating effect through both the homoeostatic and hedonic brain regions. On the other hand, semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist, reduces appetite by acting on GLP-1 receptors in the hypothalamus, increases insulin production, and decreases glucagon secretion, thus delaying gastric emptying. These distinct yet interconnected mechanisms of action of an amylin analog and a GLP-1 receptor agonist appear to synergistically reduce appetite
