CJC-1295 is a synthetic peptide derivative of the naturally occurring GHRH hormone and is composed of 29 amino acids.(2) This peptide is also referred to as Modified GRF (1-29) or CJC 1295 without DAC. It is a modified version of the peptide containing four substituted amino groups that are considered to help prevent the peptide’s degradation. CJC without DAC does not have a Drug Affinity Complex that is sometimes added to further extend the half-life of the peptide.
Overview Ipamorelin is the first synthetic GHS that appears highly selective and may have the potential to augment the production of hGH without affecting other pituitary hormones such as prolactin or adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). The potential increase in hGH might promote lipolysis and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) production synthesis. Consequently, IGF-1 may become a mediator of hGH’s anabolic actions, and thereby the peptide may act to increase cellular proliferation and bone and muscle anabolism.(1)
