CJC-1295 Mechanism

Meaning

CJC-1295 refers to a synthetic peptide analog of Growth Hormone-Releasing Hormone (GHRH) characterized by a specific modification known as Drug Affinity Complex (DAC), which significantly extends its half-life in the circulation. This prolonged action allows for sustained stimulation of the pituitary gland, leading to a more consistent and physiological release of endogenous Growth Hormone (GH). The compound is utilized clinically to elevate systemic GH and Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1) levels over an extended period.
