Synthetic AOD9401 has the potential to be developed into a therapeutic agent for the control of obesity and mimicked the effect of the intact growth hormone on diacylglycerol release in adipocytes.
The conformational and biological analysis of a cyclic anti-obesity peptide from the C-terminal domain of human growth hormone.
Comparison of the conformation of this peptide with residues 177-191 in the native hGH protein X-ray crystal structure indicates that the synthetic peptide retains some structural similarity to the intact protein.

Findings support the suggestion that hGH 177-191 is the functional domain of hGH for the antilipogenic actions of the intact hormone both in vivo and in vitro.

The effects of human GH and its lipolytic fragment (AOD9604) on lipid metabolism following chronic treatment in obese mice and beta(3)-AR knock-out mice.

It is demonstrated that the lipolytic actions of both hGH and AOD9604 are not mediated directly through the beta( 3)-AR although both compounds increase beta(3)-AR expression, which may subsequently contribute to enhanced lipolytics sensitivity.
