AOD9604 5mg

AOD9604 is a synthetic peptide belonging to the class of human growth hormone (hGH) fragments. It is a 16-amino-acid sequence (a hexadecapeptide) derived from the C-terminal lipolytic domain of human growth hormone, corresponding to the hGH 177-191 region with a tyrosine residue added at the N-terminus to support stability. Its sequence is H-Tyr-Leu-Arg-Ile-Val-Gln-Cys-Arg-Ser-Val-Glu-Gly-Ser-Cys-Gly-Phe-OH, featuring an intramolecular disulfide bridge between its two cysteine residues. AOD9604 was originally developed at Monash University in Australia as a research tool intended to isolate the fat-metabolizing portion of growth hormone from its broader growth-promoting signaling.

In preclinical and in-vitro studies, AOD9604 has been investigated for its role in lipid metabolism and adipose tissue regulation. Animal-model research has examined its association with increased lipolysis and reduced body-weight gain in obese rodent models, with reported observations that these effects occurred without measurable changes to IGF-1 levels or insulin sensitivity. Cell- and tissue-based studies have explored a proposed mechanism involving upregulation of beta-3 adrenergic receptor signaling, and knockout-model work has been used to probe the receptor dependence of the observed metabolic responses. Additional exploratory research has examined the peptide in the context of cartilage and metabolic-regulation models. These findings are derived strictly from laboratory and animal studies and are presented for research context only.
