AOD 9604 Profile

Well Studied

Modified hGH Fragment | Fat Loss Peptide

Overview

AOD-9604 is a modified fragment of human growth hormone (amino acids 176-191) that stimulates lipolysis and inhibits lipogenesis without the side effects of full growth hormone. Unlike full GH, it does not increase IGF-1, affect glucose metabolism, or cause insulin resistance.

Mechanism of Action

Stimulates lipolysis and inhibits lipogenesis through beta-3 adrenergic receptor upregulation, without binding to the GH receptor. Does not affect glucose metabolism or increase IGF-1 levels.

Key Benefits

  • Targets fat loss through selective lipolysis
  • Avoids growth hormone side effects
  • No effect on blood glucose or insulin
  • Does not increase IGF-1 levels
  • Metabolically safer than full hGH
  • Emerging cartilage repair potential

Research Indications

The following information is derived from published scientific literature and is provided for educational and research reference purposes only. It does not constitute medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment recommendations. These peptides are not approved for human use and are sold exclusively for in-vitro laboratory research.

Lipolysis Enhancement

Most Effective

Increases fat oxidation, plasma glycerol levels, and reduces body weight in obese models without affecting glucose metabolism.

Lipogenesis Inhibition

Effective

Reduces fat synthesis and storage in adipose tissue.

Metabolic Safety

Effective

Does not cause hyperglycemia, reduce insulin secretion, or increase insulin resistance.

Cartilage Repair

Effective

Enhanced cartilage regeneration when combined with hyaluronic acid in osteoarthritis models.

Osteoarthritis Support

Moderate

Synergistic effects with hyaluronic acid for joint health.

Dosing Protocols

injectable

Subcutaneous injection is the standard route. Administer in the morning on an empty stomach, wait 30 minutes before eating for optimal results.

Goal Dose Frequency Route
Fat loss - Standard 250-300mcg Once daily (morning, fasted) SubQ
Enhanced fat loss 400-500mcg Once daily (morning, fasted) SubQ
Joint support 250mcg Once daily SubQ
Conservative start 200mcg Once daily SubQ

Key Tips

  • Abdomen (near navel) or thigh injection sites
  • Morning administration on empty stomach
  • Wait 30 minutes before eating
Materials Needed
Lyophilized AOD-9604 vial Bacteriostatic water (BAC water) Insulin syringes (0.5-1mL) Alcohol swabs Sterile work surface
Steps
  1. 1 Allow vial to reach room temperature (15-20 minutes)
  2. 2 Calculate required bacteriostatic water volume
  3. 3 Clean vial stopper with alcohol swab
  4. 4 Draw BAC water into syringe
  5. 5 Inject slowly down vial side (not directly onto powder)
  6. 6 Gently swirl until dissolved (never shake vigorously)
  7. 7 Store reconstituted solution at 2-8°C
  8. 8 Use within 28 days
