  • Growth hormone-releasing peptides are synthetically developed stretches of amino acids that are considered to act as potential stimulators in the release of growth hormones in animal research models, though scientists have yet to elucidate their exact mechanism of action. They have been conjectured to induce a possible dual-site of action on both the pituitary and hypothalamus glands.
  • Research findings indicate that GHRPs may possibly reduce inflammation due to their potential antioxidant activity, which may exert cardioprotective and cytoprotective impacts. The following review highlights the similarities and differences between hexapeptides Hexarelin and GHRP-6, what contemporary research suggests are their mechanisms of action, and their proposed impact on the natural production and release of endogenous growth hormone.
