Compared to human calcitonin, salmon calcitonin also displays prolonged activation of human calcitonin receptors when tested in mammalian cell lines expressing the calcitonin receptor ( and calcitonin receptors, highlighting the possibility of targeting these receptors using a single molecule with dual-receptor agonistic properties
Looking ahead to late 2026, a wave of anticipated new therapeutic indications across a diverse range of clinical areas includes: Potential role as preventive medicines As incretin-based therapies continue to demonstrate a wide range of health benefits, interest is growing in their potential role as preventive medicines
