Usage:

Used in research to evaluate GH secretagogue activity, body composition changes, and metabolic effects.

Mechanism of Action:

Binds to the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHSR-1a) in the hypothalamus and pituitary, triggering G-protein–coupled signaling that increases pulsatile GH secretion.

Benefits:

• Enhanced pulsatile growth hormone release
• Improved lean muscle mass
• Accelerated fat metabolism
• Increased appetite (via ghrelin receptor activation)

Side Effects:

• Transient increase in cortisol and prolactin
• Mild water retention
• Increased hunger
• Possible tingling or numbness at injection site
