R-Series (R-10 / R-20 / R-30)
Investigational triple receptor agonist studied at GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors in metabolic research models.
- Classification
- Synthetic peptide, multi-receptor incretin agonist
- Supplied form
- Lyophilized powder, single-use research vial

- Lyophilized powder is typically stored refrigerated or frozen and protected from light. Prepared solutions are generally kept refrigerated and handled under standard laboratory practice.
- Solubility
- Water soluble; laboratory solutions are prepared with bacteriostatic or sterile water.
What the R-Series is
R-Series (Retatrutide) is a synthetic peptide designed to interact with three metabolic hormone receptors simultaneously: GLP-1, GIP, and the glucagon receptor. Its multi-receptor design distinguishes it from single- and dual-agonist peptides that preceded it in the published literature.
Research context
Published work on triple agonists has focused on energy balance, glucose handling, lipid metabolism, and body-composition endpoints in preclinical and clinical investigational settings. Researchers commonly reference it alongside dual GIP/GLP-1 agonists when comparing receptor coverage.
Handling in the laboratory
Supplied lyophilized. Working concentration in mg/mL is determined by the solvent volume selected by the researcher for the laboratory workflow in use.
