Description
CJC-1295 No DAC (also known as Modified GRF 1-29 or Mod GRF 1-29) is a synthetic 29-amino-acid modified analog of the N-terminal active region of growth hormone–releasing hormone (GHRH 1-29). The peptide incorporates four amino acid substitutions designed to confer DPP-IV resistance and improved synthetic stability: D-Ala² (protects against aminopeptidase cleavage), Gln⁸ (replaces oxidation-prone Asn), Ala¹⁵ (prevents trypsin cleavage), and Leu²⁷ (replaces oxidation-prone Met). Unlike the DAC (Drug Affinity Complex) variant which adds a maleimide linker for albumin binding and an extended half-life, CJC-1295 No DAC retains a shorter pharmacokinetic profile producing pulsatile GH release patterns that more closely mimic physiologic GH dynamics. The compound is investigated in preclinical research as a tool for studying GHRH receptor pharmacology, pulsatile growth hormone release, and somatotropic axis signaling.
Benefits (Research Focus)
• GHRH receptor agonism — studied for selective stimulation of the GHRH receptor and pituitary GH release
• Pulsatile GH release — investigated for physiologic-pattern growth hormone release versus sustained DAC variant
• IGF-1 axis signaling — explored for downstream hepatic IGF-1 production and somatotropic endpoints
• DPP-IV resistance — examined for extended pharmacokinetic profile via four amino acid substitutions
• Combination pharmacology — researched alongside GHS-R agonists (e.g., ipamorelin, MK-677) for paired pathway studies
What Researchers Look At
• Plasma GH and IGF-1 dynamics following CJC-1295 No DAC administration
• Pulsatile vs sustained GH release patterns versus the DAC-linked variant
• DPP-IV resistance and peptide pharmacokinetic profiles
• Comparative pharmacology versus tesamorelin, sermorelin, and other GHRH analogs
• Combined GHRH + GHS-R receptor pharmacology in paired-peptide research protocols
