CJC1295 No DAC Research

What is the research background of CJC1295 no DAC?

Growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) is used in treatment to enhance the secretion of growth hormone (GH), but it has a major limitation, that is, its short duration of action[1]. This limits the widespread clinical application of GHRH and prompts researchers to seek more long-acting alternatives. CJC1295 no DAC is a peptide drug based on 30 amino acids. It can stimulate the pituitary gland to release growth hormone (GH). This peptide drug is different from traditional peptide drugs. Its uniqueness lies in the presence of a reactive maleimide propionic acid group, which can covalently bind to the free thiols on the surface of plasma proteins. Once bound to plasma proteins, the active time of CJC1295 no DAC in the blood is significantly prolonged. Compared with unbound peptide drugs, those unbound peptide drugs will be rapidly excreted from the body, while the bound CJC1295 no DAC can remain active in the blood for a longer time. This binding mechanism makes CJC1295 no DAC a drug with a special effect.

What is the mechanism of action of CJC1295 no DAC?

Stimulating the pituitary gland to release growth hormone: This drug can stimulate the pituitary gland to release growth hormone (GH). When CJC1295 no DAC enters the body, it acts on the pituitary gland through a specific mechanism, prompting pituitary cells to increase the secretion of GH. Specifically, it may bind to specific receptors on the surface of pituitary cells, initiating a series of signal transduction pathways, ultimately leading to an increase in the synthesis and release of GH [1, 2].

Binding to plasma proteins: CJC1295 no DAC has a unique feature, that is, there is a reactive group in its structure, which can covalently bind to the free thiols on the surface of plasma proteins. This binding significantly prolongs the time that the drug remains active in the blood. Compared with unbound peptide drugs, the bound CJC1295 no DAC has a longer half-life [2]. Some studies have shown that CJC-1295 incorporates a functional maleimide group at the C-terminus, allowing it to covalently bind to plasma proteins such as serum albumin. Once bound, it can stimulate GH production in humans for more than six days after a single administration (Timms M, 2019, a).

Increasing the secretion of growth hormone: After a single injection of CJC1295 no DAC, it will lead to a dose-dependent increase in the average plasma GH concentration. This increase can last for 6 days or longer, with an increase range of 2 to 10 times [2-4]. In a study, after healthy adults received a subcutaneous injection of CJC-1295, there was a continuous, dose-dependent increase in GH levels. The estimated half-life of CJC-1295 was 5.8 - 8.1 days (Teichman S L, 2006). In GHRH knockout (GHRHKO) mice, similar properties were also shown. Daily administration of CJC1295 can maintain normal body composition and growth[5].

Affecting the secretion of insulin-like growth factor I: CJC1295 no DAC will also affect the secretion of insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I). The average plasma IGF-I concentration will increase in a dose-dependent manner, with an increase range of 1.5 to 3 times, and the duration is 9 - 11 days [2-4]. After multiple administrations of the CJC1295 no DAC dose, the average IGF-I level remains higher than the baseline level for up to 28 days (Teichman S L, 2006). In GHRHKO mice, CJC1295 also caused an increase in total pituitary RNA and GH mRNA, indicating the proliferation of growth hormone-secreting cells[5].

What are the differences in the treatment mechanisms of CJC1295 no DAC for patients with growth hormone deficiency of different age groups?

Child patients: Children are in a critical period of growth and development, and growth hormone plays a crucial role in the growth and development of their bones, muscles, and organs. Growth hormone deficiency can lead to problems such as slow growth, short stature, and delayed bone age in children.

CJC1295 no DAC promotes the growth and development of children by stimulating the pituitary gland to secrete growth hormone. It can increase the secretion amount and duration of growth hormone, and raise the levels of growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor - I (IGF-I) in the serum[3]. IGF-I is the main mediator of the action of growth hormone. It can promote cell proliferation, differentiation, and protein synthesis, and has an important role in the growth and development of bones, muscles, and organs. CJC1295 no DAC can also promote the increase of bone metabolism indicators such as osteocalcin and alkaline phosphatase, which is helpful for the growth and mineralization of bones. In addition, CJC1295 no DAC has no obvious effect on thyroid function and has a high safety level.

Adult patients: 

Adult patients with growth hormone deficiency may experience problems such as decreased muscle mass, increased fat, decreased physical strength, increased risk of cardiovascular diseases, and osteoporosis. Compared with child patients, the growth and development of adult patients have been basically completed, and the focus of treatment is on improving metabolic function and quality of life. The treatment mechanism of CJC1295 no DAC in adult patients is mainly to improve muscle strength, reduce fat mass, improve heart function, delay aging, and prevent osteoporosis by increasing the levels of growth hormone and IGF-I. Studies have shown that CJC1295 no DAC can increase the lean body mass of adult patients, reduce subcutaneous fat mass, improve insulin sensitivity, and reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases. In addition, CJC1295 no DAC can also promote the growth and mineralization of bones, increase bone density, and prevent osteoporosis [3, 5].

Elderly patients: 

With the increase of age, the secretion of growth hormone in the human body gradually decreases, leading to problems such as decreased muscle mass, increased fat, osteoporosis, and decreased immunity. Elderly patients with growth hormone deficiency have a higher disease risk, and the treatment is more difficult. The treatment mechanism of CJC1295 no DAC in elderly patients is similar to that in adult patients, but the dosage needs to be adjusted more carefully and adverse reactions need to be monitored. Due to the decline of the physical functions of elderly patients and the weakened ability to metabolize and excrete drugs, the dosage of the drug needs to be reduced to avoid drug accumulation and the occurrence of adverse reactions.

With the increasing attention to anti-aging, CJC1295 no DAC is also considered by some people to have the potential of anti-aging. Growth hormone and IGF-I play an important role in maintaining the normal physiological functions of the body and tissue repair. Therefore, this substance may have an impact on the aging process by regulating these factors [3].

As an analogue of growth hormone-releasing hormone, CJC1295 no DAC has significant effects. It can stimulate the pituitary gland to release growth hormone, regulate the secretion of insulin-like growth factor I, and thus affect the growth and metabolism of the body. In scientific research, it provides key assistance for exploring the mechanism of action of growth hormone and promotes the progress of relevant theories. In clinical applications, for patients with growth hormone deficiency, it is expected to stimulate the secretion of endogenous growth hormone and improve growth and development and metabolic abnormalities. It also shows the potential to regulate hormone levels and combat aging changes in anti-aging research. Overall, it is of great significance in both scientific research and clinical fields, bringing new opportunities for related research and disease treatment.

Polypeptide Purity Control and Verification Technical System

Humatide.com provides peptides with purity exceeding 99%. Humatide achieves precise control and scientific verification of polypeptide purity by integrating advanced technologies and a full-process quality control system: In the synthesis stage, automated solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS) is employed to accurately assemble amino acid sequences. A gradient purification strategy ranging from medium-pressure liquid chromatography (MPLC) to preparative high-performance liquid chromatography (Prep-HPLC) is utilized, optimizing mobile phase composition and elution conditions based on the physicochemical properties of the target peptide (hydrophobicity, charge distribution, etc.) to efficiently remove impurities. For purity detection, reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) serves as the core technique, separating components through the distribution difference of molecules between the stationary phase (hydrophobic packing) and the mobile phase (polar solvent). Purity is determined via retention time matching and peak area normalization. Meanwhile, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) is combined to precisely verify the molecular weight and composition through mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) analysis, eliminating structurally heterogeneous impurities. Quality management covers the entire chain from raw material acceptance, synthesis process monitoring to finished product release. A continuous quality fingerprint is constructed using multi-dimensional indicators (HPLC purity, MS molecular weight, solvent residue, etc.), and batch data traceability is achieved through a laboratory information management system (LIMS), ensuring each batch meets the prespecified purity standards. This system provides a reliable technical guarantee for preparing high-purity polypeptides through the organic integration of process optimization, multi-dimensional detection, and full-process quality control.

Concepts of High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and Mass Spectrometry (MS)

High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is a separation technology widely used by Humatide for peptide purification. Driven by a high-pressure pump, the mobile phase carries samples through a chromatographic column packed with a specific stationary phase, achieving separation based on differences in the distribution coefficients of components between the two phases. It features high separation efficiency, fast analysis speed, and strong detection sensitivity, enabling precise capture of subtle differences between target peptides and impurities such as sequence analogs or deletion peptides.

Mass spectrometry (MS) is an analytical method that converts peptide molecules into gas-phase ions through ionization technology and separates/detects ions based on their mass-to-charge ratio (m/z). It can accurately determine the molecular weight of peptides and infer amino acid sequences through fragment ion information, serving as a key technology for verifying peptide structural correctness. The combination of these two techniques allows Humatide to establish a complete quality control system from both purity separation and structural confirmation perspectives. Both methods are high-precision peptide detection technologies that scientifically demonstrate the purity and composition of peptides ordered from Humatide.com.

Humatide is committed to translating cutting-edge analytical technologies into tangible quality assurance. Our peptide synthesis laboratories are equipped with high-resolution mass spectrometers and ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography systems. Through real-time detection and data comparison of samples at each production stage, we continuously optimize synthesis processes to ensure every peptide product is delivered to customers with exceptional purity.
