What It Is
Ipamorelin is a synthetic pentapeptide and a selective growth hormone secretagogue (GHS) that mimics ghrelin by binding to the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR-1a). Known for its high specificity, it stimulates the anterior pituitary gland to release endogenous growth hormone (GH) without triggering significant elevations in cortisol, prolactin, or appetite-stimulating hormones.
What It Is Commonly Used For
-
Selective GH Secretion: Studied for its ability to induce biological Growth Hormone pulses without altering secondary pituitary or adrenal hormones.
-
Lean Tissue & Cell Repair: Evaluated in cellular and animal models for enhancing nitrogen retention, supporting protein synthesis, and facilitating soft tissue recovery.
-
Metabolic Rate & Lipolysis: Researched for its role in promoting fat metabolism and supporting baseline bone density and structural cellular growth.
General Purpose
To provide a highly selective growth hormone secretagogue reference compound for investigating pituitary GH release mechanics, body composition shifts, and cellular repair pathways in laboratory research.
