About the Compound
What is sermorelin?
Sermorelin is a synthetic 29-amino-acid peptide matching the first 29 residues of growth hormone–releasing hormone, GHRH(1-29)NH2. It acts on the GHRH receptor in the pituitary.
Is sermorelin a form of growth hormone?
No. It is a releasing-hormone analog, not growth hormone itself. Research examines how it influences the pituitary’s own growth hormone release.
How is sermorelin different from ipamorelin?
They act on different receptors. Sermorelin acts on the GHRH receptor, and ipamorelin acts on the ghrelin receptor (GHS-R1a). That is why studies sometimes examine the two pathways side by side.
How is sermorelin different from tesamorelin and CJC-1295?
All three are GHRH analogs. Tesamorelin is based on the full 44-residue sequence with a modification at the N-terminus. CJC-1295 is a modified 1-29 analog designed for a longer duration of action. Sermorelin is the unmodified 1-29 fragment.
