WHAT IS MK-677 (IBUTAMOREN) ?

MK-677 is also known as Ibutamoren. This research liquid is a growth hormone secretagogue, mimicking the growth hormone (GH)-stimulating action of the endogenous hormone ghrelin.

Animal studies also show that ghrelin improves cognitive impairments in several neurological disorders, suggesting that MK-677 might be a potential treatment for the early phase of Alzheimer’s disease.

MK-677 (Ibutamoren) is available in liquid form at 25mg per ml.

At Loti Labs, we pride ourselves on stocking high-quality research chemicals. Buy MK-677 (Ibutamoren) for sale for research purposes only and not for human consumption.

WHAT IS MK-677 (IBUTAMOREN)?

MK-677 (Ibutamoren) is a potent, long-acting, orally-active, selective, and non-peptide agonist of the ghrelin receptor. 

Research in animals shows it acts like the endogenous hormone ghrelin increasing the secretion of several hormones, including Growth Hormone and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). It increases the plasma levels of these hormones without affecting cortisol levels, a very beneficial effect.

MK-677 (Ibutamoren) also reverses diet-induced nitrogen wasting and increases muscle mass, as seen in catabolic animals because of certain acute or chronic diseases.

STRUCTURE OF MK-677 (IBUTAMOREN)

Molecular Formula: C27H36N4O5S

Molecular weight: 528.7 g/mol

CAS number: 159634-47-6

IUPAC name: 2-amino-2-methyl-N-[(2R)-1-(1-methylsulfonylspiro[2H-indole-3,4′-piperidine]-1′-yl)-1-oxo-3-phenylmethoxypropan-2-yl]propanamide

MECHANISM OF ACTION

Liquid MK-677 (Ibutamoren) mimics the ghrelin hormone released in the walls of the stomach when hungry. Ghrelin binds itself to the growth hormone secretagogue-receptor type 1a (GHS-R1a), which increases appetite. This whole mechanism affects the pituitary and hypothalamus, which play a role in enhancing growth, and burns the fat associated with the thighs, waist, and abdomen in research subjects.

MK-677 (Ibutamoren) is active after oral administration in animals with a half-life of more than twenty (20) hours (almost 24 hours).

MK-677 (IBUTAMOREN) EFFECTS

Based on available research, the benefits of MK-677 (Ibutamoren) may include:

  • Strengthening muscle mass, preventing muscle loss
  • Fat burning
  • It strengthens bones and enhances bone density
  • Reverses nitrogen waste
  • It enhances sleep
