Metabolic Health & Body Composition Peptides for Laboratory Research

Metabolic health peptides encompass a diverse group of research compounds studied for their roles in glucose metabolism, fat oxidation, mitochondrial function, and body composition research. CoreVionRX supplies GLP-3RT (Retatrutide), Tirzepatide, MOTS-c, and the KLOW blend — all as sterile lyophilized preparations with ≥99% HPLC purity.

Peptides in This Research Category

GLP-3RT / Retatrutide (Triple Receptor Agonist)

Retatrutide (commonly referred to as GLP-3RT) is a tri-receptor agonist targeting GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors simultaneously. It represents one of the most studied next-generation metabolic research compounds. Available in 10mg and 30mg research vials. View GLP-3RT 30mg →

Tirzepatide (GLP-1 / GIP Dual Agonist)

Tirzepatide is a dual GLP-1 and GIP receptor agonist. Research has focused on its effects on insulin secretion, glucagon suppression, and adipose tissue metabolism. View Tirzepatide research peptide →

MOTS-c (Mitochondrial-Derived Peptide)

MOTS-c is a 16-amino-acid peptide encoded within the mitochondrial genome. Research investigates its role in AMPK activation, insulin sensitivity, and mitochondrial biogenesis. It is one of the few peptides of mitochondrial origin to be widely studied. View MOTS-c research peptide →

KLOW Blend

KLOW is an 80mg multi-peptide research blend (GHK-Cu 50mg + BPC-157 10mg + TB-500 10mg + KPV 10mg) studied for its multi-pathway cellular effects, including GHK-Cu’s role in metabolic gene expression. View KLOW blend →

Research Applications

Incretin receptor signaling studies (GLP-1, GIP, glucagon)
Insulin secretion and glucose uptake models
Mitochondrial biogenesis and AMPK activation
Adipose tissue metabolism research
Body composition and energy expenditure studies

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between Tirzepatide and Retatrutide (GLP-3RT)?

Tirzepatide is a dual agonist (GLP-1 + GIP receptors). Retatrutide (GLP-3RT) is a triple agonist (GLP-1 + GIP + glucagon receptors). Researchers studying incretin pathway comparisons often use both compounds to compare dual vs triple receptor activation. All are for laboratory research use only.

Why is GLP-3RT a common search term for Retatrutide?

GLP-3RT refers to the compound’s triple receptor agonist mechanism (GLP-1, GIP, and Glucagon). It has become a common shorthand in the research community. CoreVionRX supplies Retatrutide under both identifiers.

What is MOTS-c and how does it differ from other metabolic peptides?

MOTS-c is unique because it is encoded within mitochondrial DNA (12S rRNA region) rather than nuclear DNA. It activates AMPK and regulates glucose metabolism through mitochondrial pathways, making it distinct from receptor-agonist peptides like Tirzepatide and Retatrutide.
