Ipamorelin 5mg
Ipamorelin – 5 mg | For Research Use Only – Not for Human Consumption
Ipamorelin is a synthetic pentapeptide growth hormone secretagogue designed to selectively stimulate the ghrelin receptor (GHS-R1a). It functions as a highly specific agonist that induces pulsatile release of endogenous growth hormone (GH) without significantly influencing the secretion of cortisol, prolactin, or adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), distinguishing it from earlier-generation secretagogues such as GHRP-6.
Mechanistic Overview
Ipamorelin acts directly on the anterior pituitary to stimulate GH secretion, while also inhibiting somatostatin, a natural inhibitor of GH release. This dual action facilitates a physiologic upregulation of the GH/IGF-1 axis, supporting tissue anabolism and recovery in research models.
Key mechanistic activities demonstrated in preclinical studies include:
-
Pituitary stimulation to promote growth hormone release
-
Suppression of somatostatin signaling, enhancing GH pulse amplitude
-
Elevation of circulating IGF-1, a critical mediator of tissue growth and repair
-
Muscle cell proliferation and support for skeletal remodeling
-
Minimal off-target hormonal stimulation, increasing its research specificity
Research Applications
Ipamorelin is widely used in in vivo and in vitro models to explore:
-
GH deficiency and somatotropic axis modulation
-
Muscle wasting disorders and sarcopenia models
-
Skeletal tissue recovery and injury repair
-
Anti-aging and regenerative medicine pathways
-
Hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis isolation in GH-related studies
Its clean secretagogue profile makes it an ideal tool for isolating GH-mediated effects in metabolic, musculoskeletal, and age-related research contexts.
