Overview+

AOD-9604 is a modified fragment of the C-terminus of human growth hormone. It is investigated for its potential role in lipid-metabolism research while lacking the growth-promoting effects associated with the full hormone, which lets researchers study a specific metabolic activity in isolation.

History+

Developed from the growth-hormone fragment 176-191, AOD-9604 was investigated for fat-metabolism endpoints. Research concentrated on its lipolytic and anti-lipogenic activity separate from the full growth-hormone molecule, testing the idea that a defined C-terminal fragment could carry the metabolic activity without the broader hormonal effects.

Structure & specifications+
CAS #: 221231-10-3
Formula: C₇₈H₁₂₃N₂₃O₂₃S₂
MW: 1815.08 g/mol
PubChem ID: 71300630
Research findings+

AOD-9604 has been examined in metabolic models for lipolytic signaling, adipocyte lipid handling, and energy-metabolism pathways. The defining research premise is that AOD-9604 isolates a fat-metabolism activity from the rest of the growth-hormone molecule, which is what makes it attractive for studying lipid handling without confounding growth effects. As a well-defined fragment, it serves as a targeted tool for adipocyte and energy-metabolism research.

Key areas of research
  • Metabolic: Lipolysis, anti-lipogenesis
  • Endocrine: GH-fragment signaling
  • Systemic: Energy-metabolism pathways

Frequently asked questions

What's the actual amount in each vial?+
Each vial contains the labeled mass of lyophilized peptide. Selected sizes appear above the price.
Are additional supplies needed?+
Reconstitution requires bacteriostatic water and appropriate sterile research labware – not included.
How long does a vial last?+
Sealed lyophilized vials are stable at −20°C for 24 months. Once reconstituted, store at 2–8°C and use within 28 days.
Does the product come with instructions?+
Each shipment includes the batch-specific Certificate of Analysis and recommended handling protocol.
What purity level is guaranteed?+
≥ 99% by reverse-phase HPLC (UV-220nm), confirmed via ESI-TOF mass spectrometry.
How should I store these products?+
Store sealed vials at −20°C, protected from light. Reconstituted solutions at 2–8°C.
What are peptides and how do they work?+
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that occur naturally in organisms, where they act as messengers in many biological systems. While some peptides have been developed for medical use, laboratory research focuses on understanding their activity at the cellular level, examining how they impact essential processes in vitro.
Do these products come with instructions?+
Products from Fast Track Labs are supplied without usage instructions, as they are designated solely for in vitro laboratory research and prohibited by law for human or animal consumption. Any misuse or unlawful application of these products will result in permanent denial of service.
How long do products take to deliver?+
Orders are typically processed and shipped within 24 hours, Monday through Saturday. Delivery times vary by location, but most domestic orders arrive within 3–5 business days. You'll receive tracking information as soon as your order ships.
