05FAQ
What is R3?
R3 is a synthetic triple agonist of the GIP, GLP-1, and glucagon receptors, studied for multi-incretin metabolic signaling in research models. It is sold for research use only.
How is R3 different from TZ2?
R3 is a triple agonist (GIP, GLP-1, and glucagon receptors), while TZ2 is a dual agonist (GIP and GLP-1). The added glucagon-receptor activity is the key research distinction.
What is R3\u2019s molecular weight?
R3 has a molecular weight of approximately 4,731.32 g/mol and CAS number 2381089-83-2.
