What is GHRP-2?

Research regarding GHRP-2 involves addressing growth hormone deficiency. When combined with a growth hormone receptor, GHRP-2 is considered a synthetic agonist of ghrelin, which causes a physiological response. In the case of GHRP-2, it promotes growth hormone secretion, making it a novel growth hormone secretagogue.

The acronym GHRP means “growth hormone-releasing peptide.” GHRP-2 is known by several names in the pharmaceutical world, the most common of which is pralmorelin, which is much easier to remember and pronounce than pralmorelin hydrochloride or pralmorelin dihydrochloride.

GHRP-2 has been extensively studied for its ability to aid in growth hormone secretion, as well as appetite and food consumption because it can bind to growth hormone secretagogue receptors. The synthetic peptide comprises six amino acids and is a non-glycosylated polypeptide, meaning it does not bind to glycans or proteins.

GHRP-2 belongs to a class of growth hormone-releasing peptides that are still undergoing clinical trials. For this very fact, purchasing GHRP-2 should only be for the sole purpose of research and not for human consumption.

How Does GHRP-2 Work?

GHRP-2 is believed to influence growth performance since it is a ghrelin agonist.

Ghrelin stimulates the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R), which was discovered in the pituitary gland using synthetic GHSs such as growth hormone-releasing peptides (GHRPs) and non-peptide compounds.

Because GHRP-2 stimulates the body to produce growth hormone, there is no interruption in natural growth hormone production as with synthetic HGH administration. Instead of being constantly increased, GHRP-2 causes growth hormone secretion in a manner that closely resembles natural release patterns.

This method avoids many of the negative side effects associated with synthetic HGH administration, such as the cessation of natural growth hormone production.

Research

GHRP-2 May Improve Muscle Growth

Yak studies indicate that GHRP-2 can promote lean body mass in two ways: increased protein deposition and decreased protein degradation. The muscle structure research showed that GHRP-2 could overcome natural growth plateaus in yaks caused by food deprivation, disease, and adverse conditions (e.g. cold). [R]

The most important discovery of this study is that growth hormone-releasing peptide 2 reduces muscle atrophy by inactivating the proteins atrogin-1 and MuRF1, which control the muscle degradation pathway. [R] There is apparent hope that such findings will be used to reduce catabolism, which is common in chronic illnesses such as autoimmune disease, cancer, and others.

GHRP 2-May Protect the Heart

The growth hormone-releasing peptide 2 and its analogs (GHRP-1 and GHRP-6) have been shown in fetal heart cell culture lines to help protect heart cells. This is achieved by reducing apoptosis or programmed cell death. [R] Such an outcome is essential after a heart attack when heart cells are more prone to apoptosis due to decreased blood flow.

GHRP-2 May Provide Appetite Stimulation

It has been demonstrated that growth hormone-releasing peptide 2 increases food intake. [R] [R]

Even though it may not appear to be a critical feature, appetite stimulation in the context of chronic disease is an important part of overall health care. Stimulating appetite easily and consistently could help doctors treat chronically ill patients and improve long-term outcomes.

GHRP-2 May Promote Sleep Quality

GHRP-2 may also improve sleep quality by lengthening stages 3 and 4 of sleep cycles by about 50% each. This results in an increase of approximately 20% in REM sleep, while decreasing deviation from “normal sleep” by up to a third. Overall, better sleep cycles resulted in better cognitive function, as well as healing, blood pressure, and energy levels. [R]

GHRP-2 May Affect Pain Perception

In other clinical studies, astute researchers discovered that pain relief came before healing by a wide margin. [R]   The findings suggest that GHRP-2 may have a direct impact on pain perception. In fact, the GHRP-2 peptide could be thought of as a selective opioid receptor agonist.

The synthetic growth hormone secretagogue (GHRP-2) does not only affect growth hormone levels but may even be lined up with most opioid pain medications, but this needs more clinical studies.

 

Safety and Side Effects of GHRP-2

GHRP-2 has minimal to moderate side effects and low oral and subcutaneous bioavailability in mice subjects. It is important to note that dosage in animal models does not correspond to human dosage. Because GHRP-2 is a research peptide, it should only be used for research purposes and not for human consumption. [R]

Frequently Asked Questions

Is GHRP-2 legal?

GHRP-2 is legal and available but only for the purpose of clinical studies. Human physiology is still yet to benefit from this synthetic chemical since research about it mostly involved animal subjects.

What can you stack GHRP 2 with?

GHRP-2 complements CJC 1925 well. In theory, CJC-1295 will cause an initial release of Growth Hormone, whereas Ipamorelin and GHRP-2 will cause greater growth hormone pulsations.

Where can you buy GHRP-2 for sale?

PureRawz is a company based in the United States that sells SARMs and other research chemicals online, including GHRP-2. They, like all other SARMs sellers, only sell these compounds as research products.
