Webinar Summary
Obesity, characterized by excessive fat accumulation, affects over one-third of
the global population and is increasingly recognized as a chronic disease requiring long-term management.
Amylin, a peptide hormone co-secreted with insulin, shows promise in regulating satiety and energy balance.
It targets brain regions for appetite and reward, delays gastric emptying, and inhibits postprandial
glucagon secretion, making it a potent metabolic modulator.
When combined with GLP-1 receptor agonists, amylin analogues offer synergistic
weight loss potential. The success of GLP-1 receptor agonists like semaglutide and tirzepatide highlights
the immense potential of these pathways for obesity treatment. As drug developers explore combination
therapies, GLP-1 and amylin offer a compelling avenue for next-generation anti-obesity drugs. Cyagen
provides comprehensive, researcher-validated CRO Solutions for Metabolic & Cardiovascular Diseases , with
specialized models like db/db and ob/ob (C57BL/6JCya strain) designed for obesity research. This webinar
will demonstrate how our advanced preclinical models and pharmacology services can accelerate your drug
development programs, providing crucial insights and reliable data for your anti-obesity pipeline.
