MAIN DESCRIPTION
AOD 9604 is a synthetic growth-hormone–derived peptide fragment developed through rational peptide design to enhance molecular stability, enzymatic resistance, and laboratory reproducibility. Unlike full-length peptide hormones, AOD 9604 is engineered as a targeted research fragment to allow focused investigation of metabolic signaling mechanisms at the cellular level.
In biochemical research environments, AOD 9604 serves as a reference peptide model for pathway mapping, enzyme-regulated signal transduction, and intracellular metabolic simulation studies. Its predictable structural integrity and analytical consistency allow cross-laboratory replication and comparative peptide research.
EXPERIMENTAL & ANALYTICAL USE
AOD 9604 is used in laboratory research for:
- Mapping peptide–enzyme interaction pathways using in vitro assay platforms
- Studying intracellular metabolic signal modulation
- Evaluating structure–activity relationships (SAR) across synthetic peptide analogs
- Supporting biochemical modeling of enzyme-regulated pathways
- Comparative peptide framework analysis within metabolic signaling research
In these settings, AOD 9604 often serves as a reference peptide compound for benchmarking synthetic fragments across multi-peptide research systems.
Toxicology and Detection Methods
For toxicology and anti-doping research, AOD-9604 is detected in biological matrices using Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).
Urinary Metabolite: The primary stable metabolite identified in urine is the sequence CRSVEGSCG, formed by the proteolytic cleavage of the N-terminal and C-terminal residues.
Detection Window: Methods utilizing solid-phase extraction (SPE) validated by Wiley have established a limit of detection (LOD) of 50 pg/mL, allowing for identification in urine samples for several days post-administration.
These analytical methods are used exclusively for forensic, anti-doping, and laboratory toxicology research and do not imply pharmacological application
Handling and Stability
AOD-9604 is typically supplied as a lyophilized white powder (acetate salt).
Solubility: It is slightly soluble in DMSO and water. Reconstitution often requires pH adjustment or the use of mild acetic acid to ensure full dissolution of the acetate salt form.
Storage: Lyophilized peptide is stable at -20°C. Once reconstituted, the presence of the disulfide bridge makes the solution sensitive to freeze-thaw cycles; aliquoting is recommended.
