what is cagrilintide?
Cagrilintide is a synthetic long-acting analog of the pancreatic peptide amylin, engineered for stability and extended half-life. Verve supplies it as a research compound for laboratory use only, not for human or veterinary use. It is catalogued under weight & metabolic as a long-acting amylin analog peptide.
Cagrilintide is a synthetic long-acting analog of amylin, the pancreatic peptide co-secreted with insulin from beta cells. Its sequence is engineered for solubility and resistance to aggregation, and it carries a fatty-acid side chain that extends circulating half-life in pre-clinical systems, giving researchers a stable tool compound where native amylin is notoriously difficult to work with.
In the laboratory, cagrilintide is studied as a non-selective agonist across the amylin and calcitonin receptor families, including the calcitonin-receptor / RAMP complexes that define amylin receptor subtypes. Verve manufactures cagrilintide in the United States, screens every batch by HPLC to a 99%+ purity standard, and publishes a batch-level certificate of analysis.

how pure is cagrilintide?
purity, third-party testing & the certificate of analysis
Every batch of verve Cagrilintideis synthesized and vial-filled in the United States and screened by an independent, accredited laboratory. Chromatographic purity and quantity are measured by HPLC-UV/VIS; where the panel includes them, endotoxin is screened by LAL and sterility by USP <71>, with the sterility result reported as no growth detected or as pending while the culture is still running. Products are manufactured to a 99%+ purity standard where stated.
Published certificates for the lots currently in our COA library cover part of the range; a published report for this compound is not in the library yet. Orders placed Monday–Friday ship by 2pm CT, free over $100, with damage protection in transit and full US tracking.

What is Cagrilintide?
Cagrilintide is a synthetic long-acting analog of the pancreatic peptide amylin, engineered for stability and extended half-life. Verve supplies it as a research compound for laboratory use only, not for human or veterinary use.
What is Cagrilintide studied for in research?
It is used as a reference agonist in amylin- and calcitonin-receptor pharmacology, RAMP-complex research, and metabolic-signaling models in vitro and pre-clinically. Verve makes no health claims.
Why is a long-acting amylin analog used in research instead of native amylin?
Native amylin aggregates readily and is difficult to keep in solution, which complicates laboratory work. Engineered analogs give researchers a more stable and reproducible tool compound for receptor studies.
How pure is Verve's Cagrilintide, and is a COA included?
It is US-made, verified by HPLC to a 99%+ purity standard, and third-party tested, with a downloadable batch-level COA on every order matched to your vial's batch code.
