Research Information
Ipamorelin is a synthetic pentapeptide and selective ghrelin receptor (GHSR) agonist, studied for its role in growth hormone secretion research. Unlike some other secretagogues, it's notable for not significantly affecting cortisol or prolactin pathways in cell-model studies, making it a useful tool for isolating ghrelin-specific signalling. Most published work has used pituitary cell lines to examine its selectivity and downstream effects on growth hormone release.
Research areas
- Ghrelin receptor (GHSR) binding studies
- Pituitary cell-line research
- Selective secretagogue comparison studies
- Growth hormone signalling pathway research
Analytical methods
Identity and purity are typically confirmed at source by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and mass spectrometry. HelixCore products are batch tested for identity and purity as standard.
Storage and handling
Store lyophilised at -20°C, away from moisture and direct light. Once reconstituted, store at 2–8°C and use within the timeframe specified on the source datasheet.
For Research Use Only. Not for human or veterinary use.
Batch tested
Every batch is tested for identity and purity (98%+) before it reaches our UK stock.
