What is GHRP-6?

GHRP-6 is a six-amino-acid synthetic peptide, His-D-Trp-Ala-Trp-D-Phe-Lys-NH2, from Cyril Bowers’ work in the early 1980s. It was one of the first growth hormone releasing peptides, and it was studied years before ghrelin, the hormone it mimics, was found in 1999.

It’s best known for two things: a clear GH release and a strong jump in appetite. That appetite effect is why it’s still a common tool in feeding research.

GHRP-6 research so far

Bowers and colleagues described its GH-releasing effect in 1984, and it became the reference compound for the receptor later named GHS-R1a.

Animal studies since then have looked at GHRP-6 in heart muscle protection and in gut and liver injury models, separate from its effect on GH.

GHRP-6 mechanism of action

GHRP-6 activates GHS-R1a in the pituitary and hypothalamus. That releases GH directly and also boosts the effect of GHRH while holding back somatostatin.

The same receptor sits in the brain’s appetite centers, which explains the hunger effect. GHRP-6 also binds CD36, a receptor on heart and blood vessel cells, which is the basis for the cardiac studies.

Reconstituting GHRP-6 5mg

The concentration is the 5mg in the vial divided by the water you add:

• 1mL of water: 5mg per mL
• 2mL of water: 2.5mg per mL
• 3mL of water: 1.67mg per mL

Use sterile bacteriostatic water and add it slowly, aiming at the glass instead of the powder. A gentle swirl is all it needs.

Dry vials last longest frozen at -20°C. Reconstituted solution goes in the fridge and is best used within four weeks or so.

How many vials of GHRP-6 5mg to order

Work out the total amount the protocol needs first, then add about 20% for test runs and the odd lost dose. Ordering everything from one lot keeps the material consistent through the whole study.

GHRP-6 options in stock

• GHRP-6 5mg (this page): $21, $4.20 per mg
• GHRP-6 10mg: $39, $3.90 per mg

Choose by how much material the project needs. Per milligram, the larger amount is the better deal.

GHRP-6 vs related compounds

GHRP-6 releases GH and strongly raises appetite, the classic tool for feeding research. If you’re choosing between options, these are the usual alternatives:

• Mod GRF 1-29 is a stabilized GHRH(1-29) with a half-life of about 30 minutes, giving short, natural-looking pulses
• CJC-1295 DAC binds albumin and lasts about a week, giving a raised GH baseline instead of short pulses
• Sermorelin is the unmodified first 29 amino acids of GHRH, broken down within minutes
• Tesamorelin is full-length GHRH with a fatty acid cap, the only GHRH analog currently approved as a drug in the US
• Ipamorelin is the most selective ghrelin-receptor peptide, with little effect on cortisol or prolactin
• GHRP-2 is the strongest GH releaser of the original GHRPs, with a milder appetite effect than GHRP-6
• Hexarelin is a very potent GHRP that also binds CD36 on heart cells

The GHRH analogs share one receptor and differ mostly in how long they last. Ipamorelin and the GHRPs work on the ghrelin receptor, so labs often pick one from each side. All of them are on our growth hormone peptides page.
