GHRP-6 Peptide – Research on Growth Hormone, IGF-1, and Muscle Recovery

GHRP-6 (Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide-6) is a synthetic peptide used in laboratory research to study growth hormone (GH) release and IGF-1 production. This peptide is being studied for its effects on muscle recovery , anabolic signaling , lipid metabolism , body composition , and appetite regulation , and plays an important role in endocrinology and sports research .

Benefits of GHRP-6

• Supports laboratory research on GH and IGF-1 production
• Stimulates muscle recovery and anabolic signaling in preclinical models
• Being studied for fat metabolism and body composition
• Effects via ghrelin receptors , relevant for appetite regulation
• Research model for endocrinology and sports sciences
• Suitable for preclinical research into muscle hypertrophy, regeneration and energy homeostasis

How does GHRP-6 work

GHRP-6 binds to the ghrelin receptor (GHS-R1a) in the pituitary gland, stimulating the release of growth hormone .

• Elevated GH levels stimulate the liver to produce IGF-1 , essential for muscle growth, repair, and anabolic signaling .
• Effects on lipid metabolism and body composition are being investigated in preclinical models.
• May affect other hormones such as cortisol and prolactin, depending on dose and study design.
• Activation of ghrelin receptors makes it a relevant model for appetite and energy intake studies .

Preparation and storage

• Store GHRP-6 between 2°C and 8°C
• After reconstitution: use within 14 days at 4°C.
• For long term storage: -20°C or below
• Use sterile solvents and avoid direct light and moisture.

Purity and quality

• GHRP-6 comes with a COA (Certificate of Analysis)
• Guarantees for purity, identity and concentration
• Ensures reliable and reproducible results in laboratory research
