Description
Research grade peptide not for human consumptiion.
- Retatrutide works as a triple–hormone receptor agonist (GIP–GLP-1–GCG receptor agonists) by targeting three different hunger-regulating hormones:
- GIP (gastric inhibitory peptide or glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide) is an incretin hormone that is released from the gut after eating. It stimulates the beta-cells in the pancreas to secrete insulin.
- GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) is also an incretin hormone that stimulates the beta-cells to secrete insulin.
- GCG (glucagon) is a hormone secreted from the alpha-cells in the pancreas. It stimulates glucose production in the liver and helps maintain adequate plasma glucose concentrations.
