This paper describes the design of cagrilintide from amylin, including the sequence modifications and fatty-acid acylation used to extend its duration of action, and its characterization in cell-based receptor-activation assays.
Does receptor balance matter? – Comparing the efficacies of the dual amylin and calcitonin receptor agonists cagrilintide and KBP-336 on metabolic parameters in preclinical models
