Technical Specifications & Chemical Profile

Research Applications & Storage Protocols

GHS-R1a Agonism & Growth Hormone/IGF-1 Secretion Profiling

Capromorelin Tartrate (formerly CP-424391) functions as a potent, orally active growth hormone secretagogue and ghrelin mimetic that acts as a high-affinity agonist of the growth hormone secretagogue receptor 1a (GHS-R1a), also known as the ghrelin receptor, with a Ki of 7 nM for human GHS-R1a and an EC₅₀ of 3 nM in rat pituitary cells for inducing growth hormone secretion. The compound directly increases growth hormone (GH) and insulin growth factor-1 (IGF-1) secretion through GHS-R1a activation, demonstrating structural homology with pyrazolinone-piperidine dipeptides that confers potent ghrelin receptor agonist activity. Capromorelin increases gastric motility and has been studied in patients with spinal cord injuries, demonstrating broader metabolic effects beyond GH/IGF-1 augmentation. In human clinical trials, capromorelin tartrate has been used as a treatment for frailty in elderly adults, showing potential for addressing age-related muscle weakness and metabolic decline. Formulations containing capromorelin have been used clinically for treating weight loss in cats with chronic kidney disease and as an appetite stimulant in dogs, demonstrating its efficacy in addressing appetite disorders and weight loss conditions. This GHS-R1a agonist mechanism positions Capromorelin Tartrate as a critical tool compound for investigating frailty mechanisms in elderly populations, appetite stimulation research, weight loss disorder models, chronic kidney disease studies, spinal cord injury recovery pathways, and gastric motility regulation in preclinical models, offering potential therapeutic benefits for metabolic and muscle health without ghrelin-related side effects.
