Technical Description

Synthetic peptide composed of 37 amino acids, developed as an agonist of the guanylate cyclase-C (GC-C) receptor. Structurally related to intestinal peptides regulating energy homeostasis, it is studied for its action on pathways associated with satiety, energy metabolism and body weight regulation. Its activation promotes increased intracellular levels of cyclic GMP (cGMP), a mechanism related to metabolic signaling and cardiometabolic balance.
