Peptide detail
Cagrilintide is a synthetic analog of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), which plays an essential role in various physiological processes such as inflammation, neurotransmission, and gastrointestinal motility. Cagrilintide exhibits potent anti-inflammatory properties by inhibiting neutrophil activation, reducing edema formation, and modulating cytokine production. It also shows potential in treating migraines due to its ability to restrict blood vessels' diameter, thus alleviating pain.
