Cagrilintide is a long-acting, lipidated analog of the pancreatic hormone amylin. It carries a fatty acid side chain that extends its half-life in preclinical models. Supplied lyophilised for laboratory research.

Research Summary

Native amylin is co-secreted with insulin by pancreatic beta cells. In-vitro binding assays have characterised cagrilintide across the amylin receptor subtypes (AMY1, AMY2, AMY3) and the calcitonin receptor. Rodent and non-human primate models have been used to study its effects on food intake, gastric emptying and body weight, including activity in the area postrema and the nucleus of the solitary tract. It has also been studied alongside GLP-1 receptor agonists in preclinical combination research.
