What is Fragment 176-191?

HGH Fragment 176-191 is the naturally occurring C-terminal portion of human growth hormone that contains the fat-metabolic signaling region. It represents the minimal active sequence for GH-mediated lipolysis without the growth-promoting or diabetogenic effects of the full hormone.

Research Applications

Fat metabolism, lipolysis signaling, body composition research without IGF-1 elevation, and comparative studies with AOD-9604.

Dosage Information (Research Use)

Research protocols: 250-500 mcg subcutaneously, 1-2 times daily, typically on an empty stomach. Research use only.

Reconstitution & Handling

Standard BAC water reconstitution.

Half-Life & Pharmacokinetics

Short — approximately 30 minutes. Multiple daily doses used in research protocols.

Reported Observations in Literature

Generally well-tolerated. Injection site irritation reported. No significant effects on glucose or IGF-1.

How Fragment 176-191 Works

Fragment 176-191 is the unmodified C-terminal segment of human growth hormone responsible for the lipolytic (fat-burning) activity of the full hormone. Unlike AOD-9604 (which adds a tyrosine residue), this is the native sequence fragment.

Research Findings

Studied alongside AOD-9604 in fat metabolism research. Does not elevate IGF-1 or affect blood glucose in published data.

Dosage & Administration

Research protocols: 250-500 mcg subcutaneously, 1-2 times daily, typically on an empty stomach. Research use only.

Safety & Side Effects

Generally well-tolerated. Injection site irritation reported. No significant effects on glucose or IGF-1.

Important: All safety information is derived from published research, primarily animal studies. No controlled human clinical trial data exists unless explicitly noted. This compound is sold for research purposes only.
