Description
Ipamorelin – Pre-filled Laboratory Cartridge for In Vitro Research (10 mg / 3 ml)
Synthetic selective pentapeptide agonist of the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R1a) in a pre-formulated stabilized buffered solution for in vitro research on intracellular signaling dynamics, somatotropic pulsatility, and receptor binding selectivity
Overview & Mechanism of Action (In Vitro)
Ipamorelin is a synthetic bioactive pentapeptide belonging to the growth hormone secretagogue (GHRP) class. In molecular endocrinology, cellular physiology, and receptor pharmacology, it serves as a primary reference standard for investigating selective growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R1a) activation without off-target neuroendocrine interference across cultured cell models:
- High-Affinity Selective GHS-R1a Agonism: Displays specific binding affinity toward the -coupled GHS-R1a receptor, stimulating phospholipase C (PLC), inositol trisphosphate () accumulation, and intracellular calcium () mobilization in pituitary cell models.
- Exceptional Functional Selectivity In Vitro: Unlike earlier generation secretagogues (such as GHRP-2 or GHRP-6), it does not induce significant cross-activation of ACTH, cortisol, or prolactin secretion in cultured neuroendocrine systems, providing a pure model for somatotropic axis mapping.
- Modulation of Proliferation and Anabolic Pathways: Stimulates cell proliferation, differentiation marker expression, and extracellular matrix synthesis in primary osteoblast and chondrocyte cultures via downstream signaling networks.
- Pre-formulated Format for Precise Laboratory Dispensing: The stabilized liquid formulation within a 3 ml cartridge eliminates manual reconstitution steps, preventing concentration errors and ensuring maximum reproducibility across automated micro-dispensing platforms.
