AOD-9604 is a modified fragment of the growth-hormone molecule studied specifically for its metabolic and fat-breakdown properties, distinct from full growth-hormone signaling.
What is AOD-9604?
AOD-9604 is a synthetic peptide based on the 176-191 amino-acid region of growth hormone — the portion associated with fat metabolism. The fragment is studied for those effects without the broader growth-hormone-axis activity.
Studied mechanisms (in-vitro and preclinical)
In preclinical models, AOD-9604 is examined for its role in lipolysis (fat breakdown) and metabolic regulation. Because it is only a fragment, researchers use it to isolate the fat-metabolism aspect of growth-hormone research.
AOD-9604 and related research peptides
AOD-9604 is often compared with GHRH analogs such as Tesamorelin and with NNMT inhibitors such as 5-Amino-1MQ in metabolic research.
Quality and Certificate of Analysis
Every batch is analyzed by an independent, ISO/IEC 17025-accredited laboratory and ships with its own Certificate of Analysis documenting identity and purity. The COA is batch-specific and available on the product page.
Storage and handling
AOD-9604 ships lyophilized. Store cold and out of light, reconstitute with bacteriostatic water, and keep the reconstituted vial refrigerated.
Frequently asked questions
What is AOD-9604 used for in research?
It is studied as a growth-hormone fragment in fat-metabolism and lipolysis research.
How is AOD-9604 different from Tesamorelin?
AOD-9604 is a GH fragment studied for fat metabolism, while Tesamorelin is a GHRH analog that stimulates the GH axis more broadly.
Is AOD-9604 approved for human use?
No. It is intended solely for in-vitro laboratory research and is not for human or veterinary use.
How should AOD-9604 be stored?
Keep the lyophilized vial cold and out of light; once reconstituted, keep it refrigerated.
