What Is GHRP-2?

Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide 2 (GHRP-2) is a synthetic, 6-amino acid sequence, which is analogous to the naturally occurring protein met-enkephalin¹. GHRP-2 has been shown to be an agonist of ghrelin², which binds strongly with the growth hormone (GH) secretagogue receptor (ghrelin receptor), stimulating potent GH secretion and appetite stimulation in animal test subjects³.GHRP-2 is known to be a non-lipogenic protein⁴, meaning that its administration does not induce fat storage. The promotion of lean body mass and improved appetite has been observed in laboratory test animals.

NuScience Peptides offers GHRP-2 for sale in a 10mg lyophilized format, ideal for controlled laboratory research applications.

GHRP-2 Compared to GHRP-6

GHRP-2, a second-generation GHRP species, is celebrated as a stimulator of long-sustained GH release (unlike first generation GHRP’s like GHRP-6) and has been shown to increase IGF-1 (Insulin-like Growth Factor 1) levels simultaneously⁵. GHRP-2 is considered to be a ‘true’ GH secretagogue, reflecting its ability to stimulate the natural, body-mediated production of GH rather than introducing exogenous, synthetic agents to a physiological system. It is closely related to GHRP-6, a hexapeptide of an earlier generation, and shares many similar characteristics.However, it has a stronger growth hormone-releasing action than GHRP-6 based on a study on cultured pituitary cells in animal test subjects, which showed a 10-fold increase in GH secretion. Consequently, GHRP-2 has been shown to increase growth hormone levels and enhances growth performance in animal test subjects.

The GHRP Family

The GHRP family of proteins is distinct from growth hormone releasing hormones (GHRH or GHRF) in that they share no sequence relation and derive their function through action at a completely different receptor, the ghrelin receptor⁶. The GHRP family is unique in that they lack opiate activity, though they are analogues of species that bear this quality⁷.
