Tesamorelin – Research Grade Peptide

Overview

Tesamorelin is a synthetic analog of Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone (GHRH), consisting of 44 amino acids designed to stimulate the natural production and release of endogenous growth hormone (GH) from the pituitary gland. It is widely studied in metabolic, endocrinologic, and body composition research due to its targeted mechanism and predictable physiological signaling profile.

Originally developed by Theratechnologies, tesamorelin has been extensively investigated in clinical and laboratory settings for its role in regulating growth hormone secretion, insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) levels, and metabolic function.

This compound is supplied strictly for laboratory and scientific research purposes.

Mechanism of Action

Tesamorelin functions by binding to GHRH receptors located in the anterior pituitary gland. This interaction stimulates the natural pulsatile release of growth hormone, which subsequently increases circulating IGF-1 levels.

Key mechanisms studied include:

• Stimulation of endogenous growth hormone secretion

• Elevation of IGF-1 production via hepatic signaling

• Regulation of lipid metabolism pathways

• Influence on adipose tissue metabolism

• Support of anabolic and regenerative cellular processes

Unlike exogenous growth hormone administration, tesamorelin promotes physiologic GH release, preserving natural feedback mechanisms.

Research Applications

Tesamorelin is currently being investigated in various scientific and clinical research areas, including:

• Growth hormone deficiency research models

• Metabolic regulation studies

• Lipid metabolism and adipose tissue research

• Cellular regeneration and repair pathways

• Endocrine system signaling studies

• Aging-related hormonal research

Its receptor-specific activity makes it a valuable compound for studying natural GH axis modulation.
