Research FAQ
Compound and research-use information
What is Ipamorelin?
Ipamorelin is a synthetic pentapeptide and selective growth hormone secretagogue-receptor (ghrelin receptor, GHS-R1a) agonist. It is provided as a research compound for study of GHS-R1a signaling.
What is Ipamorelin studied for in the research setting?
In laboratory research ipamorelin is used to investigate selective ghrelin-receptor (GHS-R1a) activation and downstream growth hormone signaling in cell and animal models, valued for its selectivity in mechanistic studies. Research is non-clinical and focused on receptor pharmacology.
What form is Aurevena's Ipamorelin supplied in?
Ipamorelin is supplied as a lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. Every batch is tested by independent, accredited U.S. laboratories for purity and identity, with the Certificate of Analysis published on this product page. Store lyophilized peptide cold and protected from light, and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Is Ipamorelin intended for human use?
No. Ipamorelin is sold by Aurevena strictly for laboratory and research use only. It is not a drug, dietary supplement, cosmetic, or medical device, and is not intended for human or veterinary use, consumption, or for the diagnosis, treatment, cure, or prevention of any disease.
