It is a dimeric complex composed of: The calcitonin receptor (CTR) , a GPCR The RAMP protein (Receptor Activity Modifying Protein), 1, 2 or 3 Depending on the type of RAMP, three different amylin receptors arise: AMY1 : CTR + RAMP1, primarily in the CNS (area postrema, hypothalamus) AMY2 : CTR + RAMP2, peripheral tissues AMY3 : CTR + RAMP3, bone tissue, some CNS Cagrilintide activates all three amylin receptors , but the primary therapeutic effect is via AMY1 in the area postrema (brainstem, where nausea and satiety signals are processed)
Studies have also explored its potential role in reducing inflammation and promoting angiogenesis in damaged tissues
Metabolites such as lactate not only may play a crucial role in immune modulation but also may contribute to central sensitization by altering the synaptic microenvironment (146), thereby potentially establishing a direct link between peripheral metabolic dysfunction and central nervous system inflammation
