Unlocking Growth: Investigative Avenues for Ipamorelin and Its Research Potential | stupidDOPE | Est. 2008

Ipamorelin is a synthetic pentapeptide that has garnered attention as a highly selective agonist of the ghrelin receptor (GHSR‑1a), also known as the growth hormone secretagogue receptor. Research indicates that this compound functions by mimicking ghrelin's actions at the receptor level, but it may stimulate growth hormone release without substantially supporting other hormonal axes, such as cortisol or prolactin, offering a unique investigative profile in preclinical and early experimental research models.
