Description

Product Overview

Ipamorelin is a highly purified, synthetic pentapeptide (Aib-His-D-2-Nal-D-Phe-Lys-NH2) developed exclusively for laboratory research. As a selective growth hormone (GH) secretagogue, it targets the ghrelin/growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R1a) to stimulate pulsatile GH release with exceptional specificity and minimal impact on other hormones, such as ACTH, cortisol, prolactin, follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), or thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH). With a molecular formula of C38H49N9O5 and a molecular weight of 711.868 g/mol, Ipamorelin is a premier tool for researchers exploring GH-mediated physiological processes, including muscle growth, metabolic regulation, aging, bone health, and gastrointestinal motility. Supplied as a lyophilized powder with ≥99% purity, this product is strictly intended for in-vitro or controlled preclinical research and is not approved for human consumption, medical, or veterinary use.

Key Features

  • Ultra-High Purity: ≥99% purity, verified by reverse-phase High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and mass spectrometry, ensuring consistent, reliable, and reproducible results for rigorous research applications.
  • Selective GH Stimulation: Unlike other GH-releasing peptides (e.g., GHRP-2, GHRP-6), Ipamorelin selectively induces GH release without significantly elevating cortisol or ACTH levels, even at doses up to 0.03 mg/kg, offering a cleaner endocrine profile.
  • High Potency: Exhibits an EC50 of 1.3 ± 0.4 nmol/L for GH release in primary rat pituitary cells, with a maximal GH production rate of approximately 694 mIU/L/h and dose-dependent increases in insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) in human and animal models.
  • Stable Formulation: Provided as a lyophilized powder (acetate salt) for extended shelf-life and stability, requiring reconstitution with bacteriostatic water (not included) for research use.
  • Versatile Research Tool: Ideal for in-vitro and preclinical studies exploring GH dynamics, with applications in muscle recovery, metabolic health, aging, and more.
  • Research-Only Product: Exclusively for laboratory use; not intended for human, medical, or veterinary applications.

Chemical and Pharmacological Profile

  • Molecular Formula: C38H49N9O5
  • Molecular Weight: 711.868 g/mol
  • CAS Number: 170851-70-4
  • Peptide Sequence: Aib-His-D-2-Nal-D-Phe-Lys-NH2 (pentapeptide structure)
  • Mechanism of Action: Acts as a ghrelin mimetic, binding to GHS-R1a receptors to stimulate pulsatile GH release while preserving the body’s natural GH secretion patterns, minimizing endocrine disruption.
  • Pharmacological Selectivity: Minimal impact on ACTH, cortisol, prolactin, FSH, LH, or TSH, distinguishing it from less selective GHRPs.
  • Potency Metrics:
    • EC50: 1.3 ± 0.4 nmol/L for GH release in vitro (rat pituitary cells).
    • Emax: 85 ± 5% for GH release.
    • SC₅₀: 214 nmol/L for GH release; maximal GH production rate ~694 mIU/L/h.
  • Half-Life: Approximately 2 hours in animal models, enabling precise control in time-sensitive experiments.
  • Historical Context: Originally developed by Novo Nordisk and evaluated by Helsinn Therapeutics in phase II clinical trials for postoperative ileus (discontinued due to insufficient therapeutic efficacy), Ipamorelin remains a gold standard in GH research.

Reconstitution and Storage

  • Reconstitution: Add 2–5 mL bacteriostatic water (not included) per 10 mg vial, depending on desired concentration. Gently swirl until fully dissolved; avoid shaking to prevent degradation.
  • Storage (Lyophilized): Store at 2–8°C (refrigerated) in a dry, dark environment. Stable for up to 24 months under proper conditions.
  • Storage (Reconstituted): Refrigerate at 2–8°C and use within 2–4 weeks to maintain potency. Do not freeze reconstituted solutions.
  • Stability Considerations: Protect from light and excessive heat. Use sterile equipment to prevent contamination during reconstitution and handling.

Packaging and Specifications

  • Quantity: 10 mg per vial
  • Form: Lyophilized powder (acetate salt)
  • Packaging: Sterile, vacuum-sealed glass vials with rubber stopper and aluminum cap, ensuring product integrity during shipping and storage.
  • Purity: ≥99%, verified by third-party HPLC and mass spectrometry.
