Lyophilized powderRetatrutide
Retatrutide (triple GIP/GLP-1/glucagon receptor agonist)
Retatrutide is a single-molecule triple agonist acting at the GIP, GLP-1, and glucagon receptors. The inclusion of glucagon receptor agonism is mechanistically distinct from dual agonists: glucagon receptor activation is studied for effects on hepatic lipid handling and energy expenditure, pathways not engaged by incretin agonism alone. It remains investigational and is a frequent subject of comparative receptor-pharmacology work.
Research applications
- Triple receptor agonism and pathway-contribution studies
- Hepatic lipid metabolism research in preclinical models
- Energy expenditure and thermogenesis pathway assays
- Head-to-head comparison against dual agonists
Storage
