Hexarelin is a potent synthetic hexapeptide and member of the growth hormone-releasing peptide (GHRP) family. It stimulates the anterior pituitary to secrete growth hormone (GH) through the activation of the ghrelin receptor (GHS-R1a), making it a powerful GH secretagogue in research models.
Notably more potent than GHRP-6 or GHRP-2, Hexarelin has been extensively studied for its ability to promote muscle growth, fat metabolism, tissue repair, and cardioprotective effects. It is also used to study the desensitization pattern of GH response over time.
