AOD-9604 (5MG)

Description

AOD-9604 represents a modified synthetic peptide fragment derived from the C-terminal region of human growth hormone, incorporating the amino acid sequence corresponding to positions 177-191 with specific structural modifications designed to enhance stability and selectivity. The compound was developed to retain the lipolytic (fat-mobilizing) properties of growth hormone while eliminating the growth-promoting effects associated with intact hormone administration. The peptide demonstrates specific lipolytic activity through mechanisms that appear to be distinct from traditional growth hormone receptor signaling pathways. Research has shown that AOD-9604 can stimulate lipolysis in adipocyte culture systems while simultaneously inhibiting lipogenesis, resulting in net fat mobilization effects. AOD-9604’s modified structure incorporates specific amino acid substitutions and modifications that enhance its stability and bioavailability compared to native growth hormone fragments.
