Tesamorelin
Growth-hormone-signal peptide
Tesamorelin is a changed version of the body's natural growth-hormone-release signal. A small chemical group has been added to make the molecule sturdier and longer-lasting than the plain copy.
Also known as TH9507 · Tesamorelin acetate
How it is studied
Like the body's own signal, it lands on the matching spot on the gland at the base of the brain and prompts it to release growth hormone.
Research context
Studied in laboratory research on the growth-hormone system and in research on body-composition models and metabolism, which is how the body uses energy.
Research area
Growth-hormone & growth-factor (IGF) research. This group of research compounds is studied for how the body's growth-hormone system works. Growth hormone is a natural substance made by a small gland at the base of the brain. Some of these compounds copy the body's own signal that tells that gland to release growth hormone. Others are lab-made copies of growth hormone itself, or of a related messenger the body makes afterward. All are for laboratory research only.
