Tesamorelin
Growth Hormone Secretagogues
£42.00per vial
Tesamorelin is a synthetic analogue of human growth hormone-releasing hormone, GHRH(1-44), carrying a trans-3-hexenoyl group on the N-terminal tyrosine that slows dipeptidyl peptidase-4 cleavage. It binds the GHRH receptor on pituitary somatotrophs and is catalogued for in-vitro and preclinical work on GH-axis signalling, IGF-1 pathway activity, and visceral adipose tissue models.

§04Compound details
Tesamorelin is a 44-amino-acid GHRH analogue. The structural difference from endogenous GHRH is a trans-3-hexenoyl moiety attached to the N-terminal tyrosine, which is the residue DPP-4 attacks in the native molecule. That modification extends the half-life in plasma and in serum-containing culture media, which is the reason the analogue rather than native GHRH is used where exposure has to be sustained across an assay window.
The receptor is GHRHR, a class B G protein-coupled receptor expressed on anterior pituitary somatotrophs. Agonist binding couples through Gs to adenylyl cyclase, raises intracellular cAMP, activates protein kinase A, and drives CREB phosphorylation and Pit-1-dependent transcription of the GH1 gene. The output is pulsatile rather than tonic growth hormone release, and preserving that pulsatility is the reason GHRH analogues are studied separately from direct growth hormone administration in endocrine models.
Downstream, growth hormone acts at hepatic GHR to drive JAK2/STAT5 signalling and IGF-1 transcription, so IGF-1 concentration is the usual distal readout in these models. Controlled laboratory research has examined tesamorelin in models of the hypothalamic-pituitary-somatotropic axis, in visceral adipose tissue remodelling and lipolysis models, and in lipodystrophy models. It is also used as a pharmacological tool to separate GHRH-receptor-mediated effects from ghrelin-receptor-mediated effects when compared against GHRP-class secretagogues. No therapeutic, diagnostic, or clinical conclusion is drawn from any study referenced above, and none should be inferred.
Tesamorelin is listed as a pre-mixed liquid in a sealed 3ml vial, at 5mg and 10mg. It is not a lyophilised presentation and there is no reconstitution step for the research user to perform.
Every batch is independently analysed before it is listed. Purity is measured by high-performance liquid chromatography, which resolves the truncation and deletion sequences that a 44-residue peptide is prone to. Identity is confirmed by mass spectrometry against the expected mass. Those are the two analytical methods used, and no other method is claimed.
Each vial carries a batch number that resolves to the public Certificate of Analysis for that batch, reporting the compound, the lot reference, the HPLC result, the mass-spectrometry result, the analysis date, and the laboratory that ran it. The document is published before the batch enters the catalogue.
Research Use Only
Tesamorelin is catalogued strictly for in-vitro laboratory research. It is not for human consumption, veterinary use, or therapeutic, diagnostic or clinical application. It is not supplied as a medicinal product and it is not licensed by the MHRA.
Not a Medical Product
None of the compounds listed on this site are medicinal products, nor should they be marketed, described or used as such. No medical claims are made about Tesamorelin. Nothing on this page is medical, veterinary or scientific advice, and no guidance on preparation, administration or quantity is provided or will be provided on request.
Compliance and Responsibility
The research user is responsible for ensuring compliance with all laws and regulations governing the receipt, handling, storage, use and disposal of research chemicals in their jurisdiction, and for applying appropriate control measures under the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 or the equivalent local regime.
Analytical Scope
Analytical results published for Tesamorelin relate solely to the batch identified on the Certificate of Analysis. Two methods are used: high-performance liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry. No other analysis is performed or implied. Results for one batch do not warrant any other batch.
Jurisdiction Notice
Tesamorelin cannot be listed to research users in the following jurisdictions: Australia, Canada, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, Norway, Russian Federation, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, South Korea, Switzerland, United Arab Emirates. It is the research user's responsibility to verify local eligibility before placing an order. Where an order is placed for a jurisdiction in which the compound cannot be listed, the order will be cancelled and refunded in full.
