CJC-1295 (No DAC)

Modified GRF (1-29) analogue studied for GHRH receptor signalling and stability

7 papers · 2005–2026 · 5 journals

What the research explores

The no-DAC form is used in the literature as a shorter-acting counterpart to DAC-conjugated GHRH analogues. Reported areas of study include:

  • Resistance to dipeptidyl peptidase-4 cleavage conferred by the substituted residues
  • GHRH receptor binding and cAMP generation in pituitary cell models
  • Half-life and exposure comparisons between DAC and no-DAC constructs in preclinical species
  • How stimulation frequency shapes somatotroph secretory patterns in animal models
  • Analytical separation of the intact peptide from its degradation products

These are published research directions rather than claims. Elements DNA makes no representation about effects in humans and supplies this material for in vitro and preclinical laboratory use only.
