Ibutamoren  (Synonyms: MK-677 free base; MK-0677 free base)

Cat. No.: HY-10199A Purity: 99.84% ee.: 99.02%
Handling Instructions Technical Support

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.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
