About AOD-9604
AOD-9604 is a synthetic peptide modeled on a short region of human growth hormone, often discussed in research on fat metabolism. It was designed to investigate whether metabolic actions associated with growth hormone could be separated from its broader growth-promoting effects. Animal experiments and historical clinical development do not establish a reliable benefit in people, and it is not an approved weight-loss medicine. The proposed selectivity and relevance of early findings remain uncertain.
At a glance
- Class
- Synthetic peptide fragment modeled on the C-terminal region of human growth hormone.
- Studied mechanism
- Investigated for effects on lipolysis and fat metabolism, with the aim of separating these actions from growth-hormone signaling.
- Evidence context
- Published work includes animal metabolic studies and early human development; those findings do not establish clinical effectiveness.
Blank arithmetic calculator
For independently verified inputs, concentration equals entered vial amount in mg divided by added liquid in mL. Entered requested mg divided by concentration gives mL; multiplying mL by the actual syringe markings per mL gives units. Enable JavaScript to use the calculator. This math does not establish that a compound is suitable for injection.
Common questions
Is AOD-9604 the same as growth hormone?
No. It is a synthetic fragment modeled on part of growth hormone, not the full hormone. Its proposed separation from growth-promoting effects remains a research question.
What kind of evidence exists for AOD-9604?
Peer-reviewed research includes animal studies of metabolic effects, alongside historical human development. This evidence does not establish AOD-9604 as an approved or proven weight-loss drug.
