GHRP-2 is a growth hormone releasing polypeptide with short half-life. GHRP-2 consists of 6 amino acids. GHRP-2, a hexapeptide tend to influence G-protein coupled receptors. GHRP-2, also called KP-102, might increase IGF-1 levels. Research evidence published in the Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism suggest that administration of GHRP-2 to growth hormone deficient individuals has increased plasma growth hormone levels. The synthetic version of GHRP-6 augments the hypothalamic activities and stimulates the pituitary gland to release growth hormones. The compound partially induces secretion of prolactin, ACTH and cortisol levels. By increasing calcium ion influx into the cells, the synthetic molecule facilitates growth hormone release. Studies are being conducted to assess the anti-inflammatory effects of GHRP-2. The compound’s molecular weight is 817.97 and molecular formula is C45H55N9O6.
