Research Mechanism Summary
AOD-9604 (hGH Fragment 176-191) is a 16-residue C-terminal fragment of human growth hormone encompassing residues 177–191 with an N-terminal tyrosine added; crucially, it does not bind or activate the GH receptor and does not induce cell proliferation, distinguishing it mechanistically from both hGH and GLP-1 class compounds (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11673763/). In murine obesity models, chronic administration reduces adipose tissue mass and increases plasma glycerol (lipolysis index) through upregulation of β3-adrenergic receptor (β3-AR) mRNA expression in fat tissue, while β3-AR knockout mice are largely unresponsive to its chronic lipolytic effects (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11713213/). The peptide also acutely increases fat oxidation and energy expenditure via β3-AR-independent pathways, suggesting multiple lipolytic mechanisms.
