Growth-hormone secretagogue
GHRP-6
An early-generation ghrelin-receptor secretagogue, a common comparator for the selectivity of newer agents like ipamorelin.
GHRP-6 is a hexapeptide growth-hormone secretagogue that activates the ghrelin receptor (GHS-R1a). It is frequently used as a reference comparator in selectivity studies, since newer secretagogues such as ipamorelin were characterised against the broader receptor activity of GHRP-6 and GHRP-2.
Common research areas
- GHS-R1a activation
