Sermorelin

Description

Sermorelin is the amidated 1-29 fragment of human growth hormone-releasing hormone, which is the shortest portion of the native 44-residue hormone that retains full activity at the GHRH receptor. It is the standard reference peptide for GHRH receptor work.

Research Background

Sermorelin is used as a reference agonist in GHRH receptor research. Topics include:

• GHRH receptor binding and cAMP accumulation assays
• Pituitary somatotroph cell culture models
• Structure-activity mapping of the GHRH N-terminus
• Comparative studies against longer-acting GHRH analogues

Peer-reviewed literature on this compound can be searched through PubMed and the NIH PMC database. Troy Peptides supplies reference material only and does not provide research protocols or interpret published findings.

Analytical Verification

Identity and purity are confirmed by independent third-party analysis before release.

• High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for purity quantification
• Mass spectrometry (MS) for identity and molecular weight confirmation

A third-party certificate of analysis is available for every product. See Certificates of Analysis.
