Ipamorelin is a synthetic pentapeptide used in laboratory research for studying growth hormone release. It selectively stimulates ghrelin receptors, supporting investigations into endocrine regulation, metabolism, muscle growth, and tissue repair mechanisms.

Ipamorelin stimulates selective growth hormone production and is a ghrelin receptor agonist. Ghrelin is a hormone produced by enteroendocrine cells (specialized cells found in the gastrointestinal tract, stomach, and pancreas) of the gastrointestinal tract that is often referred to as the “hunger hormone,” as it increases the urge to eat. Ghrelin helps prepare for food intake by increasing gastric motility (the movement of food through the stomach and into the intestines, which is controlled by muscles in the stomach and the enteric nervous system) and stimulating the secretion of gastric acid.
Ipamorelin binds to ghrelin receptors, stimulates the release of somatocrinin (a hormone released by the hypothalamus which induces the growth of human growth hormone), and inhibits somatostatin (growth hormone-inhibiting hormone that regulates the endocrine system and affects neurotransmission and cell proliferation) and suppresses its action.
It is best known for its lean muscle-growing benefits, as well as fat burning effects, accelerating injury recovery, and as an anti-aging peptide.
Muscle Growth and Maintenance
Stimulates the pituitary gland and mimics the body’s natural release of growth hormone and ghrelin
