CJC-1295 DAC

A20-5020 · Muscle Growth & Performance

What labs study it for

Growth-hormone research. Labs use this long-lasting version of a growth-hormone-releasing signal to study how sustained receptor activation behaves, and how attaching a molecule to blood proteins extends its lifetime.

What this compound is

CJC-1295 with DAC is a synthetic analogue of a growth-hormone-releasing hormone fragment, carrying a Drug Affinity Complex group that binds serum albumin and greatly extends its circulating half-life. Laboratories use it as a long-acting GHRH-receptor agonist tool in endocrine signalling studies. It is not approved for any medical use in any jurisdiction.

CJC-1295 DAC. Supplied lyophilized. Lot-specific HPLC and MS documentation accompanies each unit.

GHRH analogues

All copy the same natural hormone and hit the same receptor.

Growth-hormone-releasing hormone is a 44-amino-acid hormone made in the hypothalamus. It binds the GHRH receptor on the pituitary, which is the switch for growth-hormone release. Each compound in this family is a version of that hormone, differing in how much of the sequence is kept and how it is protected from enzymes. Sermorelin keeps the first 29 residues — the shortest piece that still activates the receptor. Tesamorelin keeps all 44 and adds a chemical group at one end to slow breakdown. CJC-1295 DAC adds a group that latches onto albumin in blood, extending its life from minutes to days.
