Results from this study2

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

Studies that did not test the peptide alone2

In this study, GHRP-6 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 GHRP-6.

  1. 01AnimalNot a test of GHRP-6 aloneAnimal study (in vivo)Mechanism

    In beagle dogs, L-NAME completely suppressed GH release induced by GHRP‑6.

    In plain wordsIn dogs, L-NAME eliminated the growth hormone response to GHRP‑6 compared with GHRP‑6 alone.
