About AOD-9604

AOD-9604 is a synthetic peptide corresponding to the C-terminal 176–191 region of human growth hormone, with an added N-terminal tyrosine and a stabilizing disulfide bridge. This fragment was identified as the portion of the hGH molecule associated with lipolytic signaling — separable from the regions that drive growth-promoting and glycemic effects. That separation is precisely why it is studied: it allows researchers to probe the fat-metabolism arm of GH signaling without the confounds of IGF-1 induction or insulin resistance that accompany the full-length hormone. Research centers on lipolysis, fatty acid oxidation, and adipocyte signaling in preclinical models. Supplied as a high-purity lyophilized powder for reproducible in-vitro and approved in-vivo work. This product is for laboratory research and development purposes only and must be handled by qualified professionals. Not for human, therapeutic, or diagnostic use.


Research Highlights

Isolated Lipolytic Domain

Corresponds to the region of hGH associated with fat-metabolism signaling, separated from its growth-promoting domains.

No IGF-1 Induction

Lacks the receptor engagement that drives IGF-1 output, removing a major confound present in full-length hGH studies.

Adipocyte Signaling

Investigated for its effects on lipolysis and fatty acid oxidation in cultured adipocyte and adipose tissue models.

No Glycemic Confound

Unlike full-length hGH, it does not carry the insulin-resistance signal, allowing cleaner metabolic study designs.

Disulfide-Stabilized

An internal Cys7–Cys14 bridge constrains the peptide’s conformation, supporting consistent behavior across replicates.

≥98% HPLC Purity

Every batch is HPLC-verified and supplied lyophilized, ensuring reproducible results across long study timelines.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is AOD-9604?

AOD-9604 is a synthetic peptide corresponding to the 176–191 C-terminal region of human growth hormone, with an added N-terminal tyrosine and a stabilizing disulfide bridge.

How does it differ from full-length hGH?

It contains only the fragment associated with lipolytic signaling, not the domains that drive growth promotion or IGF-1 induction — so it does not carry the growth or glycemic effects of the full hormone.

Why is that separation useful in research?

It lets researchers isolate the fat-metabolism arm of GH signaling without the IGF-1 induction and insulin-resistance confounds that complicate studies using the full-length hormone.

Is this product approved for human use?

No. This product has not been evaluated by the FDA and is strictly intended for research and development purposes by qualified professionals only.
