Retatrutide, often shortened to reta or reta peptide, is a synthetic 39 amino acid peptide that acts as an agonist at three class B G protein-coupled receptors: GLP-1, GIP and glucagon. NuVion stocks it in Australia as a lyophilised research material in seven vial sizes from 10mg to 60mg.
- Triple agonist at the GLP-1, GIP and glucagon receptors
- Reference compound for incretin and glucagon signalling assays
- Supplied lyophilised, purity by RP-HPLC and identity by mass spectrometry

Retatrutide receptor profile
Retatrutide is a single-chain peptide carrying a C20 fatty diacid side chain. It binds and activates the GLP-1, GIP and glucagon receptors, which all signal through Gs and cyclic AMP. Dual agonists such as tirzepatide act at two of those receptors. Retatrutide adds the glucagon receptor, which makes it a common comparator in receptor selectivity, receptor binding and cAMP accumulation work in vitro.

Retatrutide research applications
- cAMP accumulation in HEK293 or CHO cells expressing GIPR, GLP-1R or GCGR individually
- Beta-arrestin recruitment and receptor internalisation readouts used to map signalling bias at each receptor
