Results from this study1

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

In this study, MK-677 (ibutamoren) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking MK-677 (ibutamoren).

    Summary
    The cloned rat GHS-R binds [35S]MK-0677 with high affinity [dissociation constant (K(D)) = 0.7 nM] and is functionally active when expressed in HEK-293 cells.

    In this study, MK-677 (ibutamoren) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking MK-677 (ibutamoren).
