AOD-9604 5mg
$59.00
AOD-9604 is a laboratory-engineered peptide derived from a specific segment of human growth hormone, corresponding to residues 176–191. It was developed to target pathways involved in lipid metabolism while avoiding measurable effects on insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) or blood glucose regulation. This compound is supplied strictly for use in regulated research settings and is not intended for any purpose outside of scientific investigation.

Metabolic and Lipid Pathway Modulation
AOD-9604 is a modified peptide originating from the C-terminal portion (amino acids 176–191) of human growth hormone. This specific segment has been associated with the lipid-mobilizing properties of hGH. In laboratory investigations, AOD-9604 has been shown to promote lipolysis while suppressing lipogenesis in cell-based models, without producing measurable changes in glucose handling or insulin responsiveness.
Because it influences fat metabolism without activating IGF-1–mediated signaling, AOD-9604 is frequently examined in research focused on energy regulation, lipid turnover, and metabolic signaling pathways. Its targeted mechanism allows scientists to explore fat-related processes while minimizing concerns linked to growth hormone–associated mitogenic or diabetogenic effects.
Obesity and Adipose Tissue Research Models
Preclinical research, particularly in diet-induced and genetically obese animal models, has demonstrated that AOD-9604 can reduce overall fat mass without significantly affecting lean tissue or organ size. Observations indicate a preferential effect on visceral fat depots, with enhanced lipid mobilization even under high-calorie dietary conditions. Notably, these effects appear to occur independently of pituitary growth hormone signaling, distinguishing AOD-9604 from native hGH.
These characteristics make the peptide a valuable research tool for studies involving adipocyte function, obesity mechanisms, and non-endocrine pathways involved in fat regulation.
Preclinical Safety Considerations
Toxicological assessments and animal studies suggest that AOD-9604 does not display mitogenic activity or elevate IGF-1 concentrations—two primary safety concerns commonly associated with full-length growth hormone compounds. This safety profile supports its application in experimental settings where metabolic modulation is required while limiting the risk of unintended cellular proliferation.
