Scientific Description <\/h2>\n<p>GHRP-6 (Growth Hormone-Releasing Peptide-6) is <strong>a<\/strong> synthetic <strong>hexapeptide<\/strong> belonging to the group of GH secretagogues\u2014compounds studied for their ability to stimulate the secretion of growth hormone (GH) from the pituitary gland. The abbreviation \u201c6\u201d refers to the six amino acid residues that make up its structure: <strong>His-D-Trp-Ala-Trp-D-Phe-Lys-NH\u2082<\/strong>.<br \/>\nGHRP-6 was one of the first synthetic GH secretagogues developed as part of research on the ghrelin axis and is among the most extensively preclinically studied peptide compounds in this category. Its research profile is characterized by a potent GH-releasing effect combined with significant activation of the ghrelin receptor, which is relevant to research on metabolism and appetite.<br \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1824860071\" class=\"col small-12 large-12\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n<h2>Chemical Structure and Properties<\/h2>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Parameter<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Value<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Sequence<\/td>\n<td>His-D-Trp-Ala-Trp-D-Phe-Lys-NH\u2082<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Class<\/td>\n<td>Synthetic hexapeptide, GH secretagogue<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>CAS Number<\/td>\n<td>87616-84-0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Molecular weight<\/td>\n<td>873.0 Da<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Form (jacked.sk)<\/td>\n<td>5 mg freeze-dried powder<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Purity<\/td>\n<td>\u226598% (HPLC-verified)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Storage<\/td>\n<td>\u221220 \u00b0C; protect from light and moisture<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-752699896\" class=\"col small-12 large-12\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n<h2>Mechanism of action \u2013 ghrelin receptor GHS-R1a<\/h2>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-2052298781\" class=\"col medium-6 small-12 large-6\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n<h3>GH secretion and the pituitary axis<\/h3>\n<p>GHRP-6 acts as <strong>an agonist of the GHS-R1a receptor<\/strong> (Growth Hormone Secretagogue Receptor 1a)\u2014a receptor identical to the receptor for endogenous ghrelin. Binding to GHS-R1a in somatotropic cells of the anterior pituitary lobe stimulates the pulsatile release of growth hormone.
