Research Overview
About AOD-9604
AOD-9604 is a modified fragment of human growth hormone (residues 177–191).
How It Works in Research
Research indicates AOD-9604 mimics the way natural growth hormone regulates fat metabolism in the body. Studies show it has been observed to stimulate the breakdown of stored fat cells and inhibit new fat formation — without the effects on blood sugar or tissue growth seen with full growth hormone.
Research Applications
Fat metabolism: Studied for its ability to stimulate lipolysis (the breakdown of fat cells) and reduce lipogenesis (new fat formation) in research models. Metabolic health: Researched for its potential to support metabolic function without disrupting insulin sensitivity or promoting unwanted tissue growth.

- Research cycles typically range from 8–12 weeks
Mechanism of Action
AOD-9604 works by mimicking the lipolytic region of growth hormone. It stimulates lipolysis (the breakdown of fat) and inhibits lipogenesis (the formation of fatty acids and lipids) through beta-3 adrenergic receptor activation, without the growth-promoting effects of complete hGH.
Key Research Characteristics
Selective Fat Metabolism Targeting
AOD-9604 is a modified C-terminal fragment of human growth hormone (hGH 176–191) that retains the fat-burning properties without affecting IGF-1 levels or blood glucose regulation.
No Anabolic Effects
Unlike full-length growth hormone, AOD-9604 does not stimulate tissue growth, making it ideal for research focused purely on lipid metabolism without confounding anabolic variables.
Localized Adipose Targeting
Research suggests preferential activity in adipose tissue, particularly in stubborn fat deposits resistant to traditional interventions.

REFERENCE RECONSTITUTION INFORMATION
This guide explains how research peptides are commonly reconstituted using bacteriostatic water (BAC water), and shows how dosing volumes correspond to syringe units.
Always follow sterile preparation techniques when handling research peptides.
General Preparation
- Use bacteriostatic water (BAC water) only
- Inject water slowly down the inside of the vial
- Do not shake the vial
- Gently swirl to dissolve the peptide powder
- Store refrigerated after mixing
- Use sterile technique when handling
