While this positions cagrilintide as slightly less potent in vitro than salmon calcitonin (sCT, pEC ~1112), its superior stability, reduced aggregation risk, and long acting pharmacokinetic profile make it far more practical for sustained receptor engagement in both animal models and clinical investigation

The antimicrobial properties of melanocytes, melanosomes and melanin and the evolution of black skin.Journal of Theoretical Biology
Although less frequently, melanocytes can also migrate to endodermal tissues such as the nasopharynx, larynx, esophagus, and oral cavity, allowing melanotic macules and/or melanoma to develop on mucosal surfaces, although it most commonly occurs on the skin.[6] Mucosal melanotic lesions (including melanomas) primarily appear in the head and neck region (55.4%), with a significant occurrence in the anal/rectal region (23.8%)
