Tesamorelin

Tesamorelin is a synthetic analog of growth hormonereleasing hormone (GHRH) that stimulates the pituitary gland to increase the production and release of endogenous growth hormone. It is widely studied in endocrinology and metabolic research due to its effects on growth hormone signaling, insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) production, and body composition.

While a prescription form of tesamorelin is approved for a specific medical indication, research-grade tesamorelin products are intended exclusively for laboratory investigation.
