  • HY-P5645
    LEAP-2
    		Antagonist
    LEAP-2 (Human liver expressed antimicrobial peptide-2) is a GHS-R1a antagonist, with an IC50 of 6.0 nM. LEAP-2 suppresses the orexigenic effect of ghrelin. LEAP-2 attenuates ghrelin-induced growth hormone (GH) release and reduces basal food intake. LEAP-2 exhibits antimicrobial activity against microbial model organisms. LEAP-2 can be used for the study of obesity and infection.

    Ibutamoren
    		Agonist 99.84%
    Ibutamoren (MK-677 free base; MK-0677 free base) is an orally active non-peptide growth hormone secretagogue receptor agonist. Ibutamoren activates signal cascades by mimicking endogenous ligands, triggers pulsatile release of growth hormone from the pituitary gland, and increases serum levels of IGF-1 and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 3. Ibutamoren not only increases the frequency of growth hormone pulses in male individuals, but also promotes elevated bone formation markers in female individuals with postmenopausal osteoporosis. The combination of Ibutamoren with Alendronate sodium hydrate (HY-11101) significantly increases bone mineral density at the femoral neck. However, Ibutamoren may cause mild, reversible adverse reactions such as increased appetite, fluid retention, and elevated fasting blood glucose. Ibutamoren has been widely used in studies related to idiopathic growth hormone deficiency, sarcopenia, Alzheimer's disease, and osteoporosis.
  • HY-P1139
    Cortistatin-8
    		Antagonist 99.56%
    Cortistatin-8 (CST-8; PCFWKTCK), a neuropeptide, is a GHS-R1a antagonist by counteracting the response of ghrelin on gastric acid secretion. Cortistatin-8 can modulate GH release from somatotroph cells. Cortistatin-8 is a synthetic CST-analogue devoid of any binding affinity to SST-R but capable to bind the GHS-R1a. Cortistatin-8 can exert antagonistic effects on ghrelin actions either in vitro or in vivo in animals.
  • HY-116625
    PF-04628935
    		Antagonist 99.1%
    PF-04628935 (compound 10n) is a potent ghrelin receptor inverse agonist, with an IC50 of 4.6 nM. PF-04628935 exhibits oral bioavailability of 43% in rats and shows reasonable penetration into the brain. PF-04628935 can be used for stress and anxiety research.
  • HY-176995
    AZ-GHS-38
    		Agonist
    AZ-GHS-38 (compound 38) is an orally active CNS-penetrant inverse agonist of growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R1a) with an IC50 of 6.7 nM. AZ-GHS-38 results in acute reduction of food intake in wild-type mice. AZ-GHS-38 can be used for anti-obesity research.
  • HY-15242
    Capromorelin
    		Activator
    Capromorelin (CP 424391) is a pyrazolinone-piperidine dipeptide. Capromorelin is an orally active and potent growth hormone secretagogue (GHS) (hGHS-R1a Ki=7 nM, rat pituicyte EC50=3 nM).
  • HY-173271
    GHSR-1a agonist-1
    		Agonist
    GHSR-1a agonist-1 (Compound 4b) is an orally active agonist of the human growth hormone secretagogue receptor 1a (GHSR-1a), with an EC50 of 0.49 nM. GHSR-1a agonist-1 can effectively stimulate the release of endogenous growth hormone by activating GHSR-1a. GHSR-1a agonist-1 administered orally at a dose as low as 0.1 mg/kg can increase the body weight and body length of 4-week-old rats. GHSR-1a agonist-1 can be used in the research field of growth and development retardation in children.
  • HY-129287
    JMV 3008
    		Antagonist
    JMV 3008 is a GHS-R1a antagonist with an IC50 of 5.6 nM. JMV 3008 can be used in the research of diseases such as diabetes and obesity.
