Ipamorelin lyophilised research peptide in Australia, supplied for in-vitro laboratory investigation. Synthetic pentapeptide selective agonist of the ghrelin / growth-hormone-secretagogue receptor GHS-R1a (sequence Aib-His-D-2-Nal-D-Phe-Lys-NH₂). ≥99% purity by HPLC, third-party Certificate of Analysis available. Dispatched within 1-3 business days. Research use only. Not for human consumption, therapeutic use, or diagnostic application.
Research Context
Ipamorelin is a synthetic pentapeptide and a selective small-molecule agonist of the growth-hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R1a), the same receptor that endogenous ghrelin acts on. It belongs to the broader class of growth-hormone-releasing peptides (GHRPs) and is structurally unrelated to growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH). The molecule incorporates three non-standard amino acids (Aib, D-2-Nal, D-Phe) that confer receptor selectivity and resistance to enzymatic degradation. It is supplied as a lyophilised white powder for laboratory investigation.
This material is supplied strictly for in-vitro laboratory investigation. Preclinical studies in the published literature have examined Ipamorelin in the context of pituitary cell-culture growth-hormone secretion assays, ghrelin receptor binding studies, and comparative pharmacology of growth-hormone secretagogues. No therapeutic, prophylactic, or diagnostic application is claimed or implied, and the peptide is not approved for human or veterinary use in Australia.
Chemistry & Structural Modification
Ipamorelin is a 5-residue C-terminally amidated peptide with sequence Aib-His-D-2-Nal-D-Phe-Lys-NH₂, where Aib is 2-aminoisobutyric acid, D-2-Nal is D-2-naphthylalanine, and D-Phe is D-phenylalanine. The three non-standard residues are central to its selectivity at GHS-R1a.
