What is hGHRH(1-40)OH?
A synthetic or isolated fragment of human GHRH studied for its ability to reproduce GH-releasing activity. The 1-40 form is used in research to compare fragment length effects on receptor activation and peptide stability.
Key Benefits & Mechanisms
GH secretion research
fragment-activity comparison
receptor binding studies
axis physiology modeling
Research Summary
Human GHRF(1-40)OH has been studied to understand how truncation of the native hormone changes biological potency and half-life. It is a common research tool for mapping minimal active sequences within the GHRH family.

Ibutamoren
Ibutamoren mesylate (MK-677)
Ibutamoren is an orally active ghrelin receptor agonist that increases pulsatile growth hormone and IGF-1 secretion. It has been studied for effects on lean mass, recovery, and age-related anabolic support.
Growth HormoneAnamorelin
Anamorelin hydrochloride (ONO-7643)
Anamorelin is a selective ghrelin receptor agonist developed to stimulate appetite and growth hormone signaling. It has been investigated primarily in cancer cachexia and other wasting states.
Growth HormoneMacimorelin
Macimorelin acetate (AEZS-130)
Macimorelin is an orally active ghrelin mimetic used as a growth hormone stimulation agent. It produces a rapid GH rise after a single dose and is used clinically to help diagnose adult GH deficiency.
Growth HormoneCapromorelin
Capromorelin hydrochloride
Capromorelin is a ghrelin receptor agonist that stimulates growth hormone release and increases appetite. It is best known in veterinary medicine, but it has also been explored in human research settings.
