CJC-1295 DAC

Also: Modified GRF 1-29 · Drug Affinity Complex

human trialanimal study

A synthetic analogue of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) that stimulates the pituitary gland to produce and release growth hormone. The DAC (Drug Affinity Complex) version binds to albumin, extending its half-life significantly. Often stacked with Ipamorelin for synergistic effects.

Binds to GHRH receptors on the anterior pituitary somatotroph cells, stimulating growth hormone synthesis and secretion. The DAC modification allows covalent binding to serum albumin, extending half-life from minutes to days.
