The C-terminal fragments of human growth hormone inhibit adipogenesis in mouse 3T3-L1 cells
Heffernan MA et al. (2001) preclinical study (PMID 11285201) demonstrating that the C-terminal fragment of hGH (residues 177-191, the basis of AOD-9604) inhibits fat cell formation in 3T3-L1 cells, establishing the rationale for AOD-9604 as a lipolytic agent.
