AOD-9604 is a Metabolic peptide.
This Peptide is studied as an anti-obesity peptide that can reduce weight gain and increase fat oxidation in obese animal models with generally neutral effects on IGF-1 and glucose metabolism in early human trials71111115
AOD-9604 is a synthetic fragment of human growth hormone corresponding to residues 176–191 with an added N-terminal tyrosine, retaining lipolytic but not growth-promoting actions; proposed to stimulate lipolysis and inhibit lipogenesis in adipose tissue, partly via β3-adrenergic pathways without significantly activating the full GH receptor–IGF-1 axis6171111
AOD-9604 is a Hormone analog.
Acts indirectly on adipocytes, with mechanistic work implicating β3-adrenergic receptor–linked signaling in fat metabolism rather than direct GH receptor activation71111
