AOD-9604
Also known as: AOD9604, hGH fragment 176-191
Molecular Overview
AOD-9604 is a synthetic peptide based on the C-terminal region (residues 176-191) of human growth hormone. It has been investigated in preclinical models for its relationship to lipid and adipose metabolism, independent of the full growth-promoting activity of intact growth hormone.
Mechanistic Background
Research has characterized the hGH 176-191 fragment in the context of lipolytic/lipid-metabolism pathways in experimental models. Mechanistic details remain under investigation.
What Researchers Study
Researchers have examined its effects on adipose tissue and lipid metabolism in cell and animal models.
Evidence Landscape
Current evidence level: PRECLINICAL. Preclinical evidence does not equate to demonstrated human efficacy.
Research Limitations
Most available evidence is preclinical; robust human efficacy data are limited. Commercial preparations may differ from peptides used in published studies.
