High blood sugar
A plain-language symptom. Compare The Peptide maps it to these engine terms: glucose homeostasis support, insulin sensitivity. The mapping is this site's, printed here so you can judge it.
Matched peptides
Highest match first. The score is the share of this entry's targets the peptide carries; it is a match score, not a verdict.
| Peptide | How it works | Why it matches | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dulaglutide GLP-1 & metabolic | GLP-1 receptor agonist fusion protein. Activates GLP-1R coupled to adenylyl cyclase in pancreatic beta cells, increasing cAMP and leading to: (1) Glucose-depend... | glucose homeostasis support, insulin sensitivity | Compare & quote |
| Exenatide GLP-1 & metabolic | Synthetic version of exendin-4 from Heloderma suspectum (Gila monster) saliva. 39-amino acid incretin mimetic with 53% homology to human GLP-1 but resistant to ... | glucose homeostasis support, insulin sensitivity | Compare & quote |
| Liraglutide GLP-1 & metabolic | GLP-1 analog with 97% homology to human GLP-1(7-37). C16 fatty acid (palmitic) attached via glutamic acid spacer at Lys26 enables albumin binding for extended h... | glucose homeostasis support, insulin sensitivity | Compare & quote |
| Semaglutide GLP-1 & metabolic | GLP-1 receptor agonist - increases insulin, decreases glucagon | glucose homeostasis support, insulin sensitivity | Compare & quote |
| Tirzepatide GLP-1 & metabolic | GLP-1/GIP dual receptor agonist | glucose homeostasis support, insulin sensitivity | Compare & quote |
| GLP-1 GLP-1 & metabolic | Native incretin hormone secreted by intestinal L-cells. Binds GLP-1R on pancreatic beta cells, activating adenylyl cyclase → cAMP → PKA pathway. Physiological e... | glucose homeostasis support | Compare & quote |

| Retatrutide GLP-1 & metabolic | Investigational "triple agonist" that activates GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors, aiming to reduce appetite/food intake, improve glycemic control, and increas... | glucose homeostasis support | Compare & quote |
What the quotation does
For the peptides you pick it lists the products vendors in your country offer, each clickable, and ranks them three ways: best price (product price per mg), best value (price per mg after the water, syringes or needles the format forces), and best overall (value, days usable after opening, handling and quantity, weighted in the open). Every number's working is printed under it.
