AOD-9604
AOD-9604 — hGH Fragment 177–191
AOD-9604 is a synthetic 16-amino acid peptide corresponding to the C-terminal fragment of human growth hormone (hGH 177–191). Unlike full-length hGH, it does not bind the GH receptor responsible for IGF-1 upregulation or anabolic activity. Instead, it appears to interact with β-adrenergic receptor pathways in adipose tissue, stimulating lipolysis and inhibiting lipogenesis. This selectivity profile makes it a research tool for studying fat metabolism pathways in isolation from GH's broader anabolic effects. For research use only — not for human consumption.
Third-Party Tested. Every Lot.
Every batch of AOD-9604 undergoes independent HPLC and mass spectrometry analysis through an accredited third-party laboratory before it is released for sale. No exceptions. No internal-only certificates.
RP-HPLC Analysis
Every lot measured by reverse-phase HPLC. AOD-9604 consistently achieves 99.2%+ purity across batches.
ESI Mass Spec
Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry confirms exact molecular weight and rules out structural isomers or impurities.
Lot-Specific CoA
Your Certificate of Analysis references your exact lot number with actual chromatogram data — not a generic template.
Theoretical Research Analysis
All research information below reflects published preclinical literature only. This product is not for human use, consumption, or clinical application of any kind.
AOD-9604's ability to selectively stimulate lipolysis without affecting IGF-1 levels makes it valuable in studies aiming to disentangle GH's metabolic effects from its anabolic/mitogenic effects. Multiple studies have confirmed its lipid-modulating activity in adipocyte culture models.
