Cagrilintide (CAS 1415456-99-3, C194H312N54O59S2, molecular weight 4409.01 Da) is a 37-amino-acid acylated analog of human amylin, the hormone co-secreted with insulin from pancreatic beta cells in roughly a 1-to-100 molar ratio. Amylin is a satiety signal that works on a different axis from the incretins: it acts on the area postrema in the brainstem, a circumventricular organ outside the blood-brain barrier, slowing gastric emptying and suppressing glucagon independently of GLP-1 receptor occupancy. Native human amylin is difficult to work with because it aggregates into amyloid fibrils — the same islet amyloid found in type 2 diabetic pancreas — so cagrilintide substitutes residues to block fibrillation and adds a fatty acid chain for albumin binding and a long half-life. It is nonselective across the amylin receptor family, which are calcitonin receptor cores dimerised with receptor activity-modifying proteins, and it also agonises the calcitonin receptor directly. Because the satiety pathway is distinct from GLP-1, cagrilintide is studied alongside semaglutide rather than as a substitute for it.
