PeptidePedia The community reference

Welcome to PeptidePedia Wiki

The community-maintained reference for GLP-1 receptor agonists, research peptides, analytical testing, and the vendors that supply them — 175 articles, 906 citations and 7,183 recorded revisions, written by 256 editors since June 2024.

Featured article

Adverse effects of GLP-1 receptor agonists — The adverse effects of GLP-1 receptor agonists are dominated by gastrointestinal events. Nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea and constipation are reported by between a fifth and a half of participants in trials depending on agent and dose, are most frequent during escalation, and diminish with time at a stable dose.[1]Their mechanism is receptor-level rather than route-level: the same effects occur with an orally administered small-molecule agonist, which argues against a local gastrointestinal irritation explanation. Delayed gastric emptying and area postrema signalling are the proposed contributors.[1]…

Compound of the month

HAEGTFTSDVSSN-terminusC-terminus
A GIP-based backbone engineered for balanced activity at three class B receptors.

Retatrutide — Retatrutide is an investigational triple agonist at the GIP, GLP-1 and glucagon receptors, reported to produce the largest weight loss yet seen in a phase 2 obesity trial.

About this wiki

PeptidePedia Wiki is independent and volunteer-written. It sells nothing, and it is not affiliated with any manufacturer, pharmacy, compounder, supplier or testing laboratory. Nothing on it is medical advice, and many compounds documented here are distributed for laboratory research only and are not approved for human use.

Its three sourcing policies — verifiability, no original research and neutral point of view — are stricter here than the subject matter usually receives, which is the point. Text is available under the PeptidePedia Wiki Content Licence (PPCL-BY-SA 4.0).
