Description
About AOD-9604
AOD-9604 is a synthetic peptide derived from the C-terminal region of human growth hormone (hGH). It represents a small, defined section of the much larger growth hormone molecule rather than the complete hormone.
Researchers developed and studied this fragment to investigate whether some of the metabolic activity associated with growth hormone could be examined separately from its broader growth-related effects.
This makes AOD-9604 particularly relevant to research examining fat metabolism, fat oxidation, energy expenditure and how a specific peptide sequence can influence metabolic signalling.
Published animal research has reported changes in body fat, fat oxidation and energy-related metabolism under specific experimental conditions.
These findings allow researchers to investigate whether a defined region of growth hormone contributes to metabolic processes independently from the wider biological activity of the complete hormone.
Pronoia supplies AOD-9604 in a 5mg lyophilised research format with batch traceability and supporting documentation available for the supplied material.

Research Context
Published research has examined AOD-9604 in laboratory and animal models investigating how a specific fragment of human growth hormone influences fat metabolism.
In obese mouse models, researchers reported findings including:
- Reduced body weight and body fat under the tested conditions
- Increased fat oxidation and energy expenditure
- Increased sensitivity of fat tissue to processes involved in fat breakdown
- Changes in beta-adrenergic signalling, a pathway involved in regulating fat metabolism
Together, these findings make AOD-9604 relevant to research investigating whether metabolic activity associated with a specific growth-hormone fragment can be separated from the wider effects of the complete hormone.
AOD-9604 has also progressed into human clinical research. A published analysis combining data from six randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials primarily examined safety and tolerability. That research reported no increase in serum IGF-1 and no negative effect on carbohydrate metabolism under the conditions studied.
The published human research primarily addresses safety and tolerability and should not be interpreted as demonstrating in humans the metabolic effects reported in animal experiments.
These findings describe results from specific experimental and clinical research settings and do not establish suitability for human or veterinary use.
Storage & Handling
AOD-9604 is supplied in lyophilised form and should be stored according to the conditions specified by Pronoia and the applicable batch documentation.
