AOD-9604 (5 mg, 10 mg)
C-terminal hGH fragment analogue for fat metabolism research
Research use only
AOD-9604 is a synthetic peptide fragment derived from the C-terminal region of human growth hormone (hGH), corresponding to amino acids 177–191. Unlike full-length hGH, AOD-9604 is designed to retain fat-reducing properties without affecting insulin sensitivity or inducing growth-promoting activity. Preclinical studies show that AOD-9604 stimulates lipolysis, inhibits lipogenesis, and may enhance fat oxidation. This makes it a valuable tool for exploring obesity, metabolic disorders, and energy regulation in experimental models.
