hGH Fragment 176-191

Product Information

hGH Fragment 176-191 is a 16-amino acid peptide fragment derived from the C-terminal region of human growth hormone, specifically targeting fat metabolism pathways without broader HGH effects. This research compound activates hormone-sensitive lipase, disrupts adipocyte blood vessel formation, enhances thermogenesis, and increases metabolic rate in adipose tissue. Laboratory studies demonstrate nearly 50% reduction in weight gain in animal models with enhanced fat oxidation and no impact on IGF-1 or insulin levels. Research applications focus on targeted fat metabolism mechanisms, lipolysis pathways, metabolic regulation, potential cartilage regeneration studies, and preliminary cancer research investigations. The fragment demonstrates selective fat loss without muscle catabolism, maintaining insulin neutrality throughout. As the precursor to AOD9604, this peptide offers researchers fundamental insights into selective metabolic targeting. For laboratory research purposes only.
