GH Secretagogue Peptides
GHRP-6
C₄₆H₅₆N₁₂O₆
Key Research Findings
- Characterisation of the hexapeptide as a reference GHSR-1a-binding sequence.
- Published pituitary cell-line studies on GH-secretion-pathway activity.
- Animal-model receptor-binding studies under controlled in-vitro conditions.
Overview
GHRP-6 is a synthetic hexapeptide ghrelin-receptor (GHSR-1a) agonist of the first-generation GHRP class. Supplied as a lyophilised powder for in-vitro research use only.
Mechanism of Action
Reported in published in-vitro studies as a GHSR-1a ligand active on pituitary and hypothalamic cell-line assays. Not intended for human or veterinary use.
Research Effects
GHSR-1a Receptor Binding
Extensive ResearchCharacterised in receptor-binding assays as a high-affinity ligand of the ghrelin receptor.
Pituitary Cell Assays
Extensive ResearchPublished in-vitro studies in pituitary cell models report effects on GH-secretion-pathway activity.
Ghrelin-Mimetic Profile
Moderate ResearchAnimal-model assays report ghrelin-mimetic receptor activity.
