Side effects are generally rare and often resolve with consistent use
It acts as a dual agonist at amylin receptors (AMY1R, AMY2R, AMY3R, formed by calcitonin receptor heterodimerized with RAMP1-3) and calcitonin receptors, with structural modifications (e.g., N-terminal fatty acid acylation, proline substitutions) preventing fibril formation, enhancing stability, and enabling once-weekly dosing via albumin binding for prolonged circulation
It is predominantly used in scientific research and pharmaceutical formulations, where its ability to revert to its reduced form, L-Glutathione, is crucial for protecting cells against oxidative stress
