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

Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

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. 01Computer modelNot a test of GHRP-6 aloneIn silicoMechanism

    Molecular modeling based on NMR data of ghrelin suggested some structural similarities to GHRP‑6, but not enough to account for their binding properties.

    In plain wordsComputer modeling found some shapes shared by ghrelin and GHRP‑6, but not enough to explain how they bind.

    Summary
    Molecular modeling based on NMR data was carried out to probe which structural features were similar to growth hormone-releasing peptide-6 (GHRP-6), a hexapeptide that binds to GHS-R releasing GH and stimulating food intake. Modeling suggested some similarities, but they were not of a nature to acco…
