Category Growth Hormone & Release
Description Tesamorelin is a synthetic analog of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) that stimulates the pituitary gland to produce and secrete endogenous growth hormone. It consists of the full 44 amino acid sequence of human GHRH with the addition of a trans-3-hexenoic acid group, which enhances its stability and potency. Tesamorelin is particularly noted for its ability to reduce visceral adipose tissue, making it valuable for treating HIV-associated lipodystrophy and abdominal obesity. By promoting growth hormone release, it supports improved body composition, increased lean muscle mass, and enhanced metabolic function. Research applications include studying growth hormone regulation, fat metabolism, and the relationship between visceral adiposity and metabolic health.
