Scope & Mechanisms

Focus on peptides studied around metabolic pathways—GLP-1 agonism, insulin signaling, and energy homeostasis.

Targets Often Discussed

  • GLP-1 analogs (e.g., semaglutide) — satiety & insulin effects.
  • Tirzepatide — dual GIP/GLP-1.
  • MOTS-c — mitochondrial signaling.
  • AOD-9604 — lipolysis signaling hypotheses.

Lab Notes

Mind dosage forms, excipients, and storage conditions; verify COAs with explicit method details for each lot.

Signals to Compare Suppliers

  • Lot-specific GLP-1 assay data
  • Cold-chain handling
  • Clear replacement policies
