HEXARELIN
For Research Use Only | Not for Human or Veterinary Use
Description:
Hexarelin (also known as Examorelin) is a synthetic hexapeptide growth hormone secretagogue (GHS) derived from the parent compound GHRP-6. In preclinical laboratory research, Hexarelin is extensively investigated as a potent, selective agonist of the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R1a, the ghrelin receptor), stimulating anterior pituitary somatotrophs to release growth hormone (GH) through a mechanism distinct from GHRH signaling. Hexarelin is further notable for its binding affinity to the CD36 scavenger receptor expressed in cardiac tissue, distinguishing it from other GH secretagogues and positioning it as a valuable research tool in ghrelin mimetic pharmacology, GH axis physiology, and cardiovascular research models.

- Ischemia-reperfusion injury models and cardioprotective signaling pathways independent of GH
- Comparative ghrelin mimetic pharmacology with GHRP-6, GHRP-2, and related hexapeptides
- Age-related somatopause and declining pituitary responsiveness in aging research models
