| Mechanism | CJC-1295 binds to GHRH receptors (GHRHR) on pituitary somatotroph cells, activating intracellular cAMP signaling to stimulate both the transcription of the GH gene and pulsatile release of endogenous growth hormone, which in turn increases IGF-1 levels. The released IGF-1 travels to muscle tissue fo... | Hexarelin binds to and activates the ghrelin/growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R1a) in the pituitary and hypothalamus through a triple mechanism: direct stimulation of pituitary somatotroph cells to release stored GH, stimulation of hypothalamic GHRH-releasing neurons, and suppression of som... |
