Taspoglutide (Cat.No:I020684) is a long-acting glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonist developed for treatment of type 2 diabetes, with an EC50 value of 0.06 nM. Taspoglutide (R1583/BIM51077) is a long acting 10% formulation of (Aib8-35) human GLP-1 (7-36 amides) with 93% homology with the native polypeptide. It activates the GLP-1 receptor. Taspoglutide has comparable affinity (affinity constant 1.1±0.2 nM) to the natural ligand (affinity constant 1.5±0.3 nM) for the hGLP-1 receptor and exhibits comparable potency in stimulating cAMP production.
