AOD-9604

Compound background

AOD-9604 (Tyr-Leu-Arg-Ile-Val-Gln-Cys-Arg-Ser-Val-Gly-Ser-Leu-Gly-Lys-Lys) is a synthetic 15-mer fragment of human growth hormone (hGH 177-191) designed to replicate hGH’s fat-mobilizing domain without triggering mitogenic or diabetogenic signaling. Pre-clinical and early human studies show enhanced lipolysis, increased β-oxidation of fatty acids, and protection against diet-induced obesity, while leaving circulating IGF-1, glucose tolerance, and insulin levels largely unchanged. Rodent data also suggest cartilage-protective and anti-inflammatory effects, making AOD-9604 a versatile probe for metabolic and musculoskeletal research.

Note: A cloudy reconstitution of AOD-9604 is expected behavior as it has a lower intrinsic water solubility and higher tendency to form colloidal suspensions rather than true solutions. AOD-9604 may prefer a slightly acidic or buffered solution to dissolve fully. Bacteriostatic water (pH ~5.7) or saline might not always hit the optimal pH for full dissolution, causing partial clumping. The product is sterile as confirmed by its COA.
