what each one is
GLP-3 RTA
Synthetic triple-agonist peptide
GLP-3 RTA is a synthetic single-chain peptide engineered to act at three related class B G-protein-coupled receptors at once: the GLP-1 receptor, the GIP receptor, and the glucagon receptor. Its backbone is derived from the incretin peptide family and carries a fatty-acid modification that extends plasma half-life in pre-clinical systems, making it a widely cited reference agonist in incretin-receptor research.

Synthetic heptapeptide
Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide, a seven-amino-acid chain built from the endogenous immunomodulatory tetrapeptide tuftsin with a C-terminal Pro-Gly-Pro extension added to increase stability. Verve supplies it as a high-purity research compound for neuroscience and peptide-signaling research.

What is GLP-3 RTA?
GLP-3 RTA is a synthetic peptide that acts as an agonist at three receptors — GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon. Verve supplies it as a research compound for laboratory use only, not for human or veterinary use.
What is GLP-3 RTA studied for in research?
In in-vitro and pre-clinical models it is used as a reference agonist in incretin-receptor pharmacology, cAMP signaling, and metabolic-pathway research. Verve makes no claims about use in humans or animals.
What is Selank?
Selank is a synthetic seven-amino-acid peptide derived from the tetrapeptide tuftsin with a stabilizing Pro-Gly-Pro extension. Verve supplies it as a research compound for laboratory use only.
What is Selank studied for in research?
It is used as a model neuropeptide in GABAergic and monoaminergic signaling research, neurotrophic gene-expression studies, and peptide-stability work. It is not for human or veterinary use.
