About Ipamorelin
Ipamorelin is a synthetic pentapeptide with the sequence Aib-His-D-2Nal-D-Phe-Lys-NH2. It is an agonist of the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R1a), also known as the ghrelin receptor.
Canada Research Labs supplies Ipamorelin as 10mg of lyophilized powder in a 3 mL glass vial, packed and shipped from Ontario.

Research background
Ipamorelin was described by Raun and colleagues in 1998 (European Journal of Endocrinology) as the first selective growth hormone secretagogue. In the animal models studied, it acted on GHS-R1a with little effect on other pituitary hormones such as ACTH and cortisol, which set it apart from earlier secretagogues.
Because of that selectivity, Ipamorelin is often used as a reference compound in preclinical research on ghrelin receptor signaling. It is also frequently studied alongside GHRH analogs such as CJC-1295, since the two act through separate receptors.
