Ipamorelin 5mg | Growth Hormone Secretagogue (GHS) | Endocrine & Regenerative Research | West Lab Chemicals

Product Overview

Ipamorelin is a synthetic pentapeptide classified as a growth hormone secretagogue (GHS). It acts as a highly selective ghrelin receptor (GHS-R1a) agonist, stimulating growth hormone (GH) release from the anterior pituitary gland.

At West Lab Chemicals, we provide Ipamorelin 5mg (Research Grade) with ≥99% purity (HPLC & MS verified), produced under GMP-certified laboratory standards to ensure stability, accuracy, and reproducibility.

This peptide is frequently used in endocrine, muscle physiology, and metabolic regulation studies, enabling researchers to investigate GH axis activity, IGF-1 signaling, and cellular regeneration.

What is Ipamorelin?

Ipamorelin is part of the GHRP (Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide) family but is recognized as one of the most selective GH secretagogues due to its minimal impact on ACTH, prolactin, or cortisol release.

Unlike earlier GHRP analogs such as GHRP-2 or GHRP-6, Ipamorelin stimulates GH secretion without significant side hormonal activation, making it a clean, targeted, and predictable model for GH pathway research.

It is commonly studied alongside CJC-1295, GHRP-6, and GHRH analogs to analyze synergistic pituitary responses and endocrine feedback mechanisms.

Mechanism of Action

• Binds to ghrelin (GHS-R1a) receptors in the pituitary gland and hypothalamus.

• Stimulates growth hormone (GH) release from somatotroph cells.

• Enhances IGF-1 production in peripheral tissues (especially liver and muscle).

• Promotes cellular growth, regeneration, and metabolic activation.

• Exhibits no significant effect on prolactin or cortisol levels, ensuring selectivity.
