Description
AOD-9604
For Research Use Only | Not for Human or Veterinary Use
Description:
AOD-9604 is a synthetic peptide fragment derived from the C-terminal region of human growth hormone (HGH), corresponding to amino acid residues 176 to 191. Originally developed as a targeted anti-obesity compound, it was designed to selectively replicate the fat-reducing properties of HGH without triggering the anabolic or growth-promoting effects associated with full-length growth hormone. AOD-9604 has been studied in research models for its selective action in adipose tissue, where it is investigated for its ability to stimulate lipolysis and inhibit lipogenesis, making it a relevant tool in metabolic, obesity, and fat cell regulation research.
