Tesamorelin Metabolic Function

Meaning

Tesamorelin Metabolic Function refers to the specific physiological effects mediated by the synthetic peptide Tesamorelin, a growth hormone-releasing factor (GRF) analog, particularly its role in improving body composition and metabolic parameters. Clinically, it is known for its ability to selectively reduce visceral adipose tissue (VAT) in specific populations, which is metabolically harmful fat stored deep within the abdominal cavity. Beyond VAT reduction, it promotes lipolysis and influences the overall lipid and glucose metabolism, contributing to a healthier metabolic profile. This function is achieved by stimulating the pituitary gland.
