Which peptides show up in muscle-growth research? A structured reference on GH secretagogues, IGF-1 analogs and mitochondrial-derived peptides.
Peptides in muscle-related research broadly fall into three axes: the GH/IGF-1 axis via secretagogues, direct IGF-1 analogs, and mitochondrial-derived peptides that modulate cellular energy availability.
| Compound | Axis | Profile |
|---|---|---|
| CJC-1295 + Ipamorelin | GHRH + GHSR | Pulsatile GH release |
| Sermorelin | GHRH | Short-acting pulsatile |
| Tesamorelin | GHRH stabilised | Long-acting |
| MOTS-c | Mitochondrial | Energy metabolism |
