— The literature —

From the research record.

Cagrilintide acts as an agonist at the amylin receptor complexes AMY1, AMY2, and AMY3, which are formed by heterodimerization of the calcitonin receptor with receptor activity-modifying proteins 1, 2, or 3. Receptor activation couples through Gas to adenylyl cyclase, elevating intracellular cAMP. Cagrilintide also retains affinity for the calcitonin receptor itself, distinguishing it from earlier amylin analogs such as pramlintide.

Within the brainstem, amylin receptors in the area postrema and nucleus tractus solitarius mediate observed reductions in food intake and meal size in preclinical feeding studies. The molecule also engages receptors in the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus and lateral parabrachial nucleus, contributing to homeostatic satiety. Peripheral actions include slowed gastric emptying and suppression of postprandial glucagon secretion. The complementary anatomical distribution of amylin and GLP-1 receptors provides a mechanistic rationale for combination studies with semaglutide.
