Metabolic Research Peptides

Incretin analogs, amylin analogs and small molecule metabolic modulators used in preclinical work on energy balance, nutrient sensing and receptor pharmacology. Every compound ships lyophilized with batch documentation for laboratory reference.

About metabolic research peptides

Metabolic research peptides are used to study how the body senses nutrients and regulates energy. Much of this work centers on incretin hormones, the gut derived signals that act on GLP-1 and GIP receptors, and on related systems such as amylin and glucagon signaling.

This collection lets researchers compare single, dual and triple receptor agonists within one catalog. GLP-1 acts at one receptor, GLP-2 adds GIP receptor activity, and GLP-3 adds glucagon receptor activity on top of both. Cagrilintide brings the amylin pathway into the picture, and the RETA+TRIZ Combo pairs two incretin agonists for side by side work.

Beyond incretins

AOD-9604 and 5-Amino-1MQ cover different mechanisms. AOD-9604 is a modified growth hormone fragment studied in lipolysis assays, while 5-Amino-1MQ is a small molecule NNMT inhibitor used in NAD+ salvage and adipocyte research. The GLOW and KLOW blends are listed here for convenience and combine tissue research peptides in single vials.

Choosing compounds for your study

Start with the pathway or tissue you want to study, then compare the compound classes listed above. Single compounds give the cleanest readouts, while blends and bundles make combination and comparison studies easier to set up. Every product page lists the compound class, sizes, specifications and storage guidance.

Storage and documentation

Products in the metabolic research collection ship lyophilized or sealed, protected from light, with a batch number on every vial. Move vials to cold storage on arrival and request the certificate of analysis for your batch through our contact page.

Common questions

What is the difference between GLP-1, GLP-2 and GLP-3?

In this catalog, GLP-1 is a single GLP-1 receptor agonist, GLP-2 is a dual GIP and GLP-1 receptor agonist, and GLP-3 is a triple agonist that also acts on the glucagon receptor. They are listed together so researchers can compare single, dual and triple agonism.

Are metabolic research peptides shipped as powder?

Yes. All metabolic research peptides are supplied as lyophilized powder in sealed vials. Bacteriostatic water and acetic acid water are available separately for reconstitution.

Can these compounds be used in humans?

No. Every product in this collection is sold for laboratory research use only and is not intended for human or animal use.

Do these products ship with a certificate of analysis?

Every vial has a batch number linked to a certificate of analysis. Send us your order and batch number and we will send the record.

How should I store products from this collection?

Store sealed lyophilized vials at -20 °C and protected from light. Move them to cold storage as soon as they arrive.
