About This Compound
AOD9604
AOD9604 5mg — Research Overview
AOD9604 is a synthetic peptide fragment derived from the C-terminal region (amino acids 176-191) of human growth hormone (hGH). Researchers study it for its interactions with lipolytic and metabolic signaling pathways, independent of the growth-promoting and IGF-1-elevating effects associated with full-length hGH.
Neogenesis Bio Labs supplies AOD9604 as a lyophilized peptide at ≥99% purity, verified by third-party HPLC and mass spectrometry.
What Researchers Study AOD9604 For
- Lipolysis Pathways — fat cell metabolism and triglyceride breakdown mechanisms without full hGH receptor activation
- Beta-3 Adrenergic Signaling — receptor pathway interactions involved in adipose tissue regulation
- Metabolic Regulation — energy homeostasis studies in the absence of IGF-1 elevation or anabolic effects
- Body Composition Research — adipose tissue reduction models in preclinical settings
- Cartilage Biology — emerging research on osteoarthritis and extracellular matrix integrity pathways
Frequently Asked Questions
What is AOD9604 derived from?
AOD9604 is a 16-amino acid fragment corresponding to positions 176-191 of the human growth hormone sequence, isolated for its lipolytic activity while being structurally distinct from the growth-promoting domain.
How does AOD9604 differ from full-length hGH?
Full-length hGH drives significant IGF-1 elevation and anabolic signaling. AOD9604 interacts selectively with metabolic pathways associated with the C-terminal domain, making it a more targeted research tool for lipolytic pathway studies without the confounding variables of full hGH activity.
What reconstitution approach is standard?
Lyophilized AOD9604 is typically reconstituted with bacteriostatic water. Store at or below 4°C and use within 28 days. Store lyophilized powder at 2-8°C prior to reconstitution.
Is a Certificate of Analysis included?
Yes. Every vial ships with a third-party COA confirming identity, purity (≥99% HPLC), and peptide integrity.
