What is AOD-9604?
- AOD-9604 (Advanced Obesity Drug 9604) is a synthetic peptide consisting of a specific fragment from the C-terminal region of human growth hormone, specifically amino acids 176–191. Unlike intact growth hormone, AOD-9604 does not activate growth hormone receptors or elevate IGF-1 levels.
- Initially developed for obesity research, AOD-9604 has attracted scientific interest for its potential to promote lipolysis (fat breakdown), suppress lipogenesis (fat formation), and support cartilage and soft tissue repair through targeted activity in adipose and joint tissues.
What Studies Have Found
Promotes Fat Breakdown and Metabolism
May stimulate lipolysis—the process by which stored fat is broken down and released for energy use.
Supports Joint and Cartilage Repair
May stimulate chondrocyte activity and collagen synthesis in joint tissue
Inhibits New Fat Formation
Beyond breaking down existing fat, research indicates AOD-9604 may also suppress lipogenesis the formation of new fat cells and storage of excess lipids.
No Hormonal or Blood Sugar Effects
Unlike full-sequence growth hormone, AOD-9604 does not activate growth hormone receptors, elevate IGF-1 levels, or influence insulin sensitivity or glucose metabolism.
Potential Side Effects
- Injection Site Reactions – Mild redness, swelling, or itching may occur.
- Headache or Fatigue – Occasionally reported in research contexts.
- Digestive Discomfort – Nausea or bloating in isolated studies.
- Mild Edema – Transient water retention has been observed in some experiments.
- Allergic Response – Rare; localized irritation or sensitivity to excipients.
