What is Cagrilintide?
Cagrilintide is a long-acting acylated amylin analog that mimics the effects of the hormone amylin. It works by activating amylin receptors to slow gastric emptying, reduce food intake, and improve glucose regulation. Cagrilintide has a significantly extended half-life compared to native amylin, making it valuable for sustained appetite regulation research. It’s often studied in combination with GLP-1 agonists.
