Hexarelin (5mg)

Potent GH Release with Unique Heart-Protective Properties

Activates cardiac CD36 receptors for cardioprotection independent of GH.

Research Applications & Benefits

What is Hexarelin?

Activates cardiac CD36 receptors for cardioprotection independent of GH.

Listed vial contents: 5mg. These are supplied quantities, not administration doses. Current pricing and availability are shown in the strength selector.

What mechanisms are being studied?

Hexarelin is a synthetic hexapeptide GH secretagogue that uniquely activates both GHS-R1a on pituitary somatotrophs (for GH release) AND CD36 scavenger receptors on cardiac tissue (for cardioprotection). The cardiac CD36 activation is completely independent of GH — meaning it provides heart-protective benefits through a separate signaling cascade.

What are the research questions?

  • Cardioprotection: Direct binding to cardiac CD36 receptors reduces infarct size, improves coronary perfusion, and modulates cardiac remodeling — independent of GH effects.
  • GH stimulation: Among the most potent GH releasers, though subject to desensitization with chronic use.
  • Heart failure research: Post-MI and chronic heart failure models show improved ejection fraction and reduced fibrosis.

What does the published work describe?

Bodart V et al. (Circ Res 2002) — Reduced infarct size 25-40% in cardiac ischemia models. Cardiac effects confirmed independent of GHS-R1a. Note: Hexarelin shows receptor desensitization with continuous dosing (unlike Ipamorelin), requiring cycling protocols.

What are the limits of this evidence?

The research described concerns the cited experimental materials and models, not proof that this supplied vial is a treatment. Cell or animal findings do not establish human benefits. Clinical findings, where cited, apply to the tested formulation and population; they do not validate this research product for human use.
