Product Description
AOD-9604 10mg
Researching Fat Metabolism and Selective Lipolysis
What It Does
AOD-9604 is a synthetic fragment of human growth hormone being studied for its ability to target fat metabolism without activating broader growth hormone pathways. It is a focus in research exploring adipose tissue regulation, fat oxidation, and metabolic efficiency.
What Researchers Explore
- Targeted fat cell breakdown (lipolysis)
- Fat metabolism without appetite changes
- Preservation of lean tissue during fat loss
- Appetite-neutral metabolic regulation
- Connective tissue and joint-related pathways
Technical Background
AOD-9604 is a 16-amino acid peptide derived from the C-terminal region of human growth hormone (amino acids 176–191), with a molecular weight of 1,815.1 Da and an N-terminal tyrosine substitution. It has been studied for its ability to stimulate lipolysis and inhibit lipogenesis in adipose tissue without influencing IGF-1 levels or systemic growth pathways.
Preclinical research indicates enhanced fat mobilization and oxidation in metabolic models, isolating the lipolytic activity associated with full-length growth hormone while minimizing broader endocrine effects.
Common Research Applications
- Lipolytic pathway and fat mobilization research
- Growth hormone fragment structure-activity studies
- Selective adipose tissue metabolism research
- IGF-1-independent metabolic pathway studies
- Lipogenesis inhibition and fatty acid oxidation
- Metabolic dysfunction and obesity models
