Overview
Biochemical Characteristics
RT-3 incorporates structural elements enabling activity at all three target receptors: GLP-1R, GIPR, and glucagon receptor. Published pharmacology reports unequal potency across the three receptors, highest at GIPR and lower at GLP-1R and the glucagon receptor.

Pathway / Mechanistic Context
Preclinical Research Summary
Form & Analytical Testing
Mechanisms of Action
Triple Receptor Activation - Simultaneous agonism at GLP-1R, GIPR, and glucagon receptor (GCGR)
Enhanced Energy Expenditure - Glucagon receptor activation promotes thermogenesis, fat oxidation, and energy expenditure
Glucose-Dependent Insulin Secretion - GLP-1R and GIPR components support glucose homeostasis in a glucose-dependent manner
Hepatic Metabolism - Glucagon receptor activation promotes hepatic lipid oxidation and reduces liver fat

Common questions
- What purity is RT-3, and how is it tested?
- RT-3 is supplied at 99%+ purity. Each production lot is tested by an independent third-party laboratory, with HPLC for purity and mass spectrometry for identity. Published certificates can be looked up by the lot number printed on your vial in our COA library.
- Does RT-3 come with a Certificate of Analysis?
- Certificates are published online rather than printed in the box. You can view and download the certificate on this page before you buy, and match the lot number on your vial to its certificate in the COA library. Our guide on how to read a peptide COA explains each section.
- How fast does RT-3 ship?
- Orders placed before 2 PM EST ship the same day from the United States, with tracking and discreet packaging.
- How should RT-3 be stored?
- Store at -20°C. Our storage and handling guide covers temperature, light and moisture in more detail.
- What if independent testing doesn't confirm the stated purity?
- Our Purity Guarantee covers it: if independent testing does not confirm the stated purity, you get a full refund and a free replacement.
- Is RT-3 for human use?
- No. RT-3 is sold strictly for laboratory research use only. It is not for human or veterinary use, and we do not provide dosing or administration guidance.
