Compound Overview
Class of Compound:
Peptide
Mechanism of Action:
Fragment 176-191 exhibits lipolytic activity similar to that of growth hormone, without the accompanying hyperglycemia. The sequence does not compete for the HGH receptors and can induce fat metabolism while increasing energy consumption, fat oxidation, and the generation of myoblasts.
Notable Studies:
- Hyperglycemic action of synthetic C-terminal fragments of human growth hormone
- The effects of human GH and its lipolytic fragment (AOD9604) on lipid metabolism following chronic treatment in obese mice and beta(3)-AR knock-out mice
- Effect of Intra-articular Injection of AOD9604 with or without Hyaluronic Acid in Rabbit Osteoarthritis Model
Also Known As:
Somatotropin (176-191), 66004-57-7, human growth hormone (176-191), hGH (176-191), DTXSID10216216, hGH Fragment 176-191
Research Applications:
- Fat loss
- Reduced insulin sensitivity
- Cartilage regeneration
Risks:
- Limited human studies
- Mechanism of action not fully understood
- Injection-related side effects
