La sermorelina è una manciata di ormone della crescita che rilascia l'ormone (Colpevolezza) analoghi che sono stati sviluppati negli ultimi anni nel tentativo di preservare alcuni degli effetti positivi del GHRH naturale evitando effetti indesiderati. La sermorelina (Geref) è attualmente utilizzata clinicamente per valutare la secrezione dell'ormone della crescita, ma il peptide è di ulteriore interesse per le sue capacità di:

• Riduci le cicatrici a seguito di infarto,
• Aumenta la densità ossea,
• migliorare la nutrizione nelle malattie croniche,
• migliorare la funzione renale,
• combattere gli effetti della demenza e
• ridurre l'attività convulsiva.

1. Sermorelin e Heart Health

L'attacco cardiaco, sebbene pericoloso per la vita, può anche portare a disabilità a lungo termine secondaria all'insufficienza cardiaca, anomalie della conduzione cardiaca (aritmie), ridotta capacità di esercizio, dolore e altro ancora. Numerosi di questi problemi derivano dal rimodellamento cardiaco che segue il danno ai miociti (cellule muscolari cardiache). Spesso, il rimodellamento cardiaco porta non solo a cicatrici nell'area del danno a seguito di un infarto, ma anche nelle aree circostanti e non danneggiate. Questo rimodellamento provoca una serie di problemi a lungo termine e la ricerca ha dimostrato che impedire che accada può migliorare significativamente i risultati sia dopo il infarto che per anni lungo la linea.

Nel 2016, uno studio sui suini ha rivelato che la somministrazione di sermorelina è efficace nel ridurre il rimodellamento che segue un infarto. La ricerca ha dimostrato che Sermorelin:

• riduce la morte cellulare nei cardiomiociti,
• aumenta la produzione di componenti della matrice extracellulare necessari per una guarigione adeguata,
• aumenta la crescita dei vasi sanguigni a tessuto danneggiato e
• Riduce la produzione di sostanze che causano un'infiammazione dannosa.

Clinicamente, gli effetti della sermorelina sono osservati in una migliore funzione diastolica, nella riduzione delle dimensioni della cicatrice e nell'aumento della crescita capillare^[1], ^[2]. There is current research exploring the benefits of sermorelin in other forms of heart disease, such as heart failure and even valve disorders.

2. Sermorelin and Epilepsy

Gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a central nervous system signaling molecule known to reduce electrical activity in the spinal cord and reduce overall electrical excitability in the central nervous system. A number of anti-seizure medications work either by increasing levels of GABA in the central nervous system or by binding to GABA receptors and mimicking the effects of GABA. In a recent study of mice with epilepsy, scientists administered GHRH analogues, like sermorelin, to test the effect of these peptides on seizure activity. It turns out that GHRH analogues are effective in suppressing seizures by activating GABA receptors_[3]. This is a very new finding and an active area of research as medications for treating seizure conditions, while effective, have a range of detrimental side effects that reduce their clinical use.

3. Sermorelin and Sleep

There is good evidence that sleep cycles are regulated by orexin, a potent neurochemical produced by certain neurons in the brain. It is also well understood that growth and healing, which are strongly associated with growth hormone secretion, primarily take place during sleep. Research in rainbow trout suggests that this is no coincidence, with an intact GHRH axis being a necessary component for proper orexin secretion and function. In addition, the research reveals that exogenous administration of sermorelin and other GHRH agonists can boost orexin secretion ^[4]. There is ongoing research into the benefits of using sermorelin in sleep disorders.

4. Sermorelin Preferred to Growth Hormone

Sermorelin is a growth hormone releasing hormone derivative and, as such, produces all of the same effects that GH produces, including increasing muscle mass, boosting long bone growth, and reducing adipose tissue. Even though the effects are the same, the side effects are not. In fact, sermorelin is the preferred way to increase GH levels in humans, even over the exogenous administration of growth hormone itself. The primary reason for this preference is that sermorelin is subject to physiological feedback mechanisms that help to prevent common problems encountered with GH administration. These problems include overdose, improper dosing, and unintended side effects like edema, joint pain, and dysregulation of normal physiology^[5].

A second reason to prefer sermorelin is that research shows it is not subject to tachyphylaxis, the process by which the body becomes accustomed to a medication and requires higher and higher doses to achieve desired effects. In some cases, tachyphylaxis is so severe that a drug holiday (complete cessation of use of a medication) is required to regain the effects of a medication. Long-term use of sermorelin in certain clinical settings as well as animal studies of the peptide indicate that the body has a unique response to the peptide. Rather than down-regulate the production of GHRH receptors with administration of sermorelin, the body instead increases their production. This ensures that sermorelin’s effects are unchanged, that tachyphylaxis does not develop to a substantial degree, and that dose escalation is generally not required^[6].

Sermorelin exhibits moderate side effects, low oral and excellent subcutaneous bioavailability in mice. Per kg dosage in mice does not scale to humans. Sermorelin for sale at
