A synthetic hexapeptide (His-D-2-methyl-Trp-Ala-Trp-D-Phe-Lys-NH2, CAS 140703-51-1) derived from GHRP-6 by 2-methylation of the D-Trp. Agonizes the ghrelin/GHS-R1a receptor and the CD36 scavenger receptor, with GH-releasing potency greater than GHRP-2 or GHRP-6. Evaluated in Phase 2 for growth hormone deficiency and, separately, for myocardial protection in heart failure — the CD36 arm confers cardioprotective activity independent of the GH axis. Not FDA-approved.
