02How They Differ
AOD-9604
A modified growth-hormone fragment studied for lipolytic and fat-metabolism pathways.
AOD-9604 is a synthetic modified fragment of human growth hormone corresponding to the C-terminal residues 176-191 with a tyrosine modification. Research focuses on its lipolytic activity and effects on fat metabolism.
Cagrilintide
A long-acting amylin analog studied for amylin-receptor signaling and satiety-pathway research.
Cagrilintide is a long-acting synthetic analog of the hormone amylin, studied for agonism at the amylin and calcitonin receptor family. Research models examine its role in satiety signaling, gastric-emptying, and energy-balance pathways.
