Ipamorelin
Pentapeptide ghrelin-receptor agonist used in growth-hormone secretagogue research. Selective for GHS-R1a with limited cross-activity on ACTH/cortisol axes in published studies.
What the literature says.
Mechanism of action
Binds GHS-R1a (the ghrelin receptor) on somatotrophs, eliciting pulsatile GH release without the prolactin/ACTH/cortisol rises seen with older secretagogues in the referenced literature.
Preclinical summary
Ipamorelin is a synthetic pentapeptide studied as a selective growth-hormone secretagogue. It appears across in vivo rodent and non-human-primate pituitary-response models.
