Research Use Only
This product is intended for laboratory research purposes only. It is not intended for human or veterinary use, food, cosmetic, household, or agricultural applications. Not for human consumption.
Overview
GHRP-6 (Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide-6) is one of the first synthetic GH secretagogues discovered. It acts as a ghrelin receptor agonist with potent GH-releasing properties. GHRP-6 is notable for producing significant appetite stimulation, making it valuable for research into ghrelin's dual roles in GH regulation and hunger signaling.
Mechanism of Action
GHRP-6 acts through multiple pathways:
- Ghrelin receptor (GHS-R1a) agonism
- Strong hypothalamic appetite signaling
- Direct pituitary stimulation
- Cortisol and prolactin modulation
Research Applications
- GH secretagogue studies
- Ghrelin pathway research
- Appetite regulation mechanisms
- Comparative GHRP pharmacology
- Combined secretagogue protocols
Handling & Storage
- Store lyophilized peptide at -20C
- Protect from light and moisture
- Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water
- Reconstituted solution stable at 2-8C for up to 4 weeks
