Key features include: 99% purity, confirmed by HPLC and mass spectrometry for analytical accuracy and research reproducibility Pentapeptide structurewith non-proteinogenic residues (Aib and D-amino acids) conferring exceptional metabolic stability and resistance to non-specific proteolytic degradation High receptor selectivitydemonstrating minimal activity on non-target pituitary hormones including ACTH, cortisol, prolactin, FSH, LH, and TSHdistinguishing it from less selective growth hormone secretagogues Potent GHS-R1a agonist activitywith ED = 2.3 nmol/kg in conscious animal models, comparable to GHRP-6 efficacy but with enhanced selectivity Lyophilized powder formatproviding extended shelf-life stability of up to 24 months when stored appropriately, with minimal degradation under recommended cold-storage conditions Widely utilized as a pharmacological tool compoundfor structure-activity relationship (SAR) investigations and receptor-ligand selectivity studies For laboratory research use only These properties support its use as ipamorelin for research across receptor pharmacology, endocrine signaling, and growth hormone axis investigations
Exercise, particularly a combination of aerobic and resistance activities, associated with less regain
