Overview

What is AOD-9604?

AOD-9604 is a modified fragment of the C-terminus of human growth hormone (amino acids 176–191). It retains GH's lipolytic (fat-mobilizing) activity while lacking its growth-promoting, IGF-1-elevating and glucose-affecting properties.

What is AOD-9604?

AOD-9604 is a modified analog of the C-terminal fragment of human growth hormone (residues 176–191). It was originally developed as an anti-obesity peptide that would retain GH's fat-mobilizing activity while stripping away its anabolic and glucose-affecting properties.

Because it does not raise IGF-1 or affect insulin sensitivity, AOD-9604 has become a common tool in fat-loss and cartilage-repair research where researchers want lipolysis without the systemic GH response.

How does AOD-9604 work?

AOD-9604 stimulates β3-adrenergic receptors in adipose tissue, promoting lipolysis (breakdown of stored triglycerides) and inhibiting lipogenesis (new fat storage).

Unlike full-length growth hormone, it does not bind GH receptors on non-adipose tissue, which is why it does not elevate IGF-1 or interfere with insulin signaling in research models.

Research highlights

• Selective lipolysis, particularly of visceral and abdominal fat depots

• No effect on IGF-1 or fasting glucose in trials

• Studied for cartilage regeneration alongside fat-loss endpoints

• Pairs cleanly with GHRP/GHRH stacks without amplifying IGF-1

Dosing reference (research use)

Common research dosing: 300 mcg subcutaneously daily, fasted, for 4–8 week cycles.

1 vial = 5 mg. At 300 mcg/day, a vial covers ~16 days.

Reported side-effect signals

Generally very well tolerated in published trials

Occasional injection-site sensitivity

Mild hunger modulation

FAQ

Common questions

Is AOD-9604 third-party tested?+

Yes. Every batch of AOD-9604 ships with an HPLC purity report and identity confirmation from an independent lab. Batch numbers are searchable in our Lab Results portal.

How is it shipped?+

Ambient, insulated mailer, discreet plain packaging. Includes BAC water + 12 syringes. Domestic delivery in 24–48h.

Do you ship internationally?+

Currently US only for research supply. International researcher accounts require verification.

What is the shelf life?+

Lyophilized vials remain stable for 12+ months at −20°C. Once reconstituted, refrigerate at 2–8°C and use within 30 days.
