Overview
Cagrilintide is a long-acting synthetic amylin analogue. Supplied as a lyophilised powder for in-vitro research use only.
Mechanism of Action
Reported in published in-vitro studies as a ligand of amylin receptors in hypothalamic and brainstem cell-line assays. Not intended for human or veterinary use.
Research Effects
Amylin Receptor Binding
Extensive ResearchReported in receptor-binding assays as a high-affinity ligand of amylin receptor subtypes.
Extended Pharmacokinetic Profile
Extensive ResearchCharacterised in animal-model studies with an extended plasma half-life due to fatty-acid conjugation.
Glucagon Cell-Model Studies
Moderate ResearchPublished in-vitro cell models report effects on glucagon-secretion pathway activity.
