GHRP-6
GHRP-6 (Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide-6) is a synthetic hexapeptide that has been widely studied for its ability to stimulate growth hormone (GH) secretion via interaction with the ghrelin receptor (GHS-R1a). This peptide has gained significant attention in endocrinological and metabolic research due to its influence on cellular signaling pathways related to GH release, appetite regulation, and energy homeostasis.
