TAXONOMY

Peptide classes

The family is grouped by which receptors a molecule activates, not by brand or indication. That is the only grouping that predicts how a peptide behaves.

GLP-1

5 ENTRIES

Single-receptor incretin agonists — the approved backbone of the class.

GLP-2

2 ENTRIES

Intestinotrophic analogues acting on the GLP-2 receptor.

GLP-3

4 ENTRIES

The consumer nickname for triple agonists led by retatrutide.

Dual agonist

1 ENTRIES

GIP + GLP-1 co-agonists combining two incretin pathways.

Amylin

1 ENTRIES

Amylin analogues used alone or paired with an incretin.

Native hormones

3 ENTRIES

The endogenous peptides the whole class is modelled on.

GH secretagogues

6 ENTRIES

GHRH analogues and ghrelin-receptor agonists that raise endogenous growth hormone.

Repair & recovery

3 ENTRIES

Peptides studied for tissue healing, angiogenesis and connective-tissue repair.

Immune & inflammation

2 ENTRIES

Thymic and anti-inflammatory peptides that modulate immune signalling.

Melanocortin

2 ENTRIES

Melanocortin-receptor agonists affecting pigmentation, arousal and appetite.

Longevity & metabolic

3 ENTRIES

Mitochondrial and pineal peptides studied in ageing and metabolic research.

Neuro & cognitive

2 ENTRIES

Regulatory peptides studied for anxiety, stress resilience and cognition.
