01
Mechanism of action
GHRP-6 is a synthetic hexapeptide that stimulates GH release through the ghrelin (GH secretagogue) receptor and acts synergistically with GHRH.
02
Observed research endpoints
- As a diagnostic test, GH responses were lower in GH-deficient children than normal children, with considerable overlap; responses were almost completely blocked in pituitary stalk transection.
- In rats, combined GHRH plus GHRP-6 was the most potent GH stimulus, showing synergy.
03
Regulatory & safety context
- Not approved by the FDA or EMA for any indication; research-grade material is not a medicine.
- Listed as prohibited in sport by the World Anti-Doping Agency.
