{"product_id":"aod-9604","title":"AOD-9604","description":"\u003cp\u003eAOD-9604 is a synthetic peptide comprising the C-terminal fragment (amino acids 176-191) of human growth hormone, modified with an added tyrosine residue. It represents the isolated lipolytic domain of GH, engineered to influence fat metabolism without the growth-promoting or glucose-altering effects of the full hormone. Research shows AOD-9604 stimulates lipolysis (the breakdown of stored fat) and inhibits lipogenesis (new fat accumulation), acting on beta-3 adrenergic receptors in adipose tissue. Preclinical studies demonstrate reduced body fat, particularly in obese models, while importantly showing no measurable effect on IGF-1, blood glucose, or insulin sensitivity, distinguishing it from intact growth hormone. Additional research explores its potential in cartilage repair and metabolic regulation. Because it targets fat metabolism through a receptor-mediated mechanism rather than systemic GH signaling, AOD-9604 is widely studied as a model compound in obesity, lipid-metabolism, and regenerative research.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eFor laboratory and research use only.
