Research Overview
Potent synthetic GHRP that activates GHS-R1a receptors; also demonstrated cardioprotective properties in preclinical models via CD36 receptor binding, independently of its GH-releasing action.
Overview
Hexarelin (His-D-2MeTrp-Ala-Trp-D-Phe-Lys-NH2) is a synthetic hexapeptide designed to potently stimulate growth hormone secretion through activation of the ghrelin receptor (GHSR-1a) in the pituitary gland and hypothalamus. Preclinical research has characterised its pharmacological profile across both pituitary GH-releasing activity and cardiovascular tissue effects mediated through CD36 receptor engagement.
A distinctive feature of hexarelin's preclinical research profile is its ability to engage CD36, a multifunctional scavenger receptor expressed in cardiac tissue, independent of its ghrelin receptor activity. Preclinical cardiovascular studies have used hexarelin as a pharmacological tool to study CD36 biology in cardiac cells and animal models of cardiac function.
