AOD-9604 — Modified Fragment of Human GH Research Compound

Catalog ID: AOD9 | CAS: 221231-10-3 | Sequence: Tyr-Leu-Arg-Ile-Val-Gln-Cys-Arg-Ser-Val-Gly-Ser-Cys-Gly-Phe

Compound Overview

AOD-9604 is a synthetic peptide fragment derived from the C-terminal end of the human growth hormone (HGH 177–191) sequence.
It has been structurally modified to preserve the metabolic activity of natural HGH without exhibiting its growth-promoting properties, making it useful for controlled metabolic and peptide receptor research.
For laboratory research use only — not for human consumption or therapeutic application.
