WHY RESEARCHERS ARE INTERESTED

Why are researchers interested in CJC-1295?

CJC-1295 is a synthetic peptide that has been studied because of the way it interacts with the body’s natural growth hormone signaling system.

Growth hormone is a chemical messenger produced by the pituitary gland. It is involved in growth, metabolism, tissue maintenance, and the production of another signaling molecule called IGF-1. CJC-1295 is designed to act on the signaling pathway that tells the pituitary gland to release growth hormone. The “with DAC” version was designed to remain active in research models for a longer period than shorter-acting versions of similar peptides.

WHAT DOES THAT ACTUALLY MEAN?

Think of hormones as messages the body uses to tell different organs and tissues what to do. One of those messages is growth hormone. The pituitary gland — a small gland at the base of the brain — releases growth hormone in natural pulses. Another signal called GHRH helps tell the pituitary when to release it. CJC-1295 was designed to imitate part of that natural signal. In simple terms, researchers use CJC-1295 to study what happens when the body’s own growth-hormone signaling system is encouraged to remain active for a longer period. DAC stands for Drug Affinity Complex, a modification designed to allow the peptide to remain in circulation longer for research.

GROWTH HORMONE SIGNALING

Growth hormone is one of the body’s natural chemical messengers. Researchers study how CJC-1295 influences the signals involved in its release.

Growth hormone is one of the body’s natural chemical messengers. Researchers study how CJC-1295 influences the signals involved in its release.

IGF-1

IGF-1 is another signaling molecule whose production is influenced by growth hormone. Researchers study how changes in growth hormone signaling may also affect IGF-1.

METABOLISM

Metabolism means how the body processes, stores, and uses energy from nutrients such as sugars and fats.

RECOVERY BIOLOGY

Researchers study how growth-hormone-related signaling is involved in normal tissue maintenance, rebuilding, and adaptation.

A SIMPLE GUIDE

How does growth hormone signaling work?

THE SIGNAL

The body produces GHRH, a natural signal that helps tell the pituitary gland when to release growth hormone.

THE SIGNAL

The body produces GHRH, a natural signal that helps tell the pituitary gland when to release growth hormone.

THE PITUITARY RESPONDS

The pituitary gland receives that signal and releases growth hormone into the bloodstream.

THE MESSAGE TRAVELS

Growth hormone can then communicate with tissues throughout the body and influence other signaling molecules such as IGF-1.

WHERE DOES CJC-1295 FIT IN?

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

Researchers are studying how CJC-1295 may interact with the body’s natural growth hormone signaling system.

Normally, GHRH acts as a signal that tells the pituitary gland when to release growth hormone. CJC-1295 was designed to interact with this same signaling pathway, allowing researchers to study how changes in that signal may influence growth hormone and related molecules such as IGF-1.

The “with DAC” version includes a modification called Drug Affinity Complex, which was designed to allow the compound to remain in circulation longer. This gives researchers a way to study more prolonged signaling rather than only a short-lived response.
