Mk677 / Mk-677 / Ibutamoren Ibutamoren (MK-677, L-163,191) is a drug which acts as a potent, orally active grow hormone secretagogue.
It is able to increase both muscle mass and bone mineral density. It also alters metabolism of body fat and so may have application in the treatment of obesity.
MK-677 Ibutamoren mesylate Description:
Ibutamoren (INN) (MK-677, MK-0677, L-163,191) is a non-peptidic, potent, long-acting, orally-active, and selective agonist of the ghrelin receptor and a grow hormone secretagogue, It has been demonstrated to increase the release of, and produces sustained increases in plasma levels of several hormones including GH .MK677 has shown to sustain activation of 1.Axis and increase in lean body mass but no change in total fat mass or visceral fat.
It is currently under development as a potential treatment for reduced levels of these hormones, such as in children or elderly adults with grow hormone deficiency,and human studies have shown it to increase both muscle mass and bone mineral density,making it a promising therapy for the treatment of frailty in the elderly.
MK-677 Effects:
Nutrobal (Mk-677) is an orally administrated grow hormone secretagogue originally developed by Reverse Pharmacology. A secretagogue is the term for a substance that chemically signals for the pituitary gland to secrete grow hormone. In other words, Nutrobal could be compared to peptides like GHRP-6 or Ipamorelin, only it doesn't require any injections nor does it have any side effects like GHRP-6. This GHS (Grow Hormone Secretagogue) was developed in an aim to combat such conditions as muscle wasting, obesity and osteoporosis. It was also targeted towards treatment of elderly hip fracture patients, so there are a myriad of studies done on safety.
MK-677 Benefits
In a study on it's effects on catabolic states, a once daily oral dose of 25mgs was given to healthy young men subjected to short-term diet-induced nitrogen wasting. After 7 days of this dose, the subjects showed a sustained increase in serum concentration ; in addition, the nitrogen wasting was reversed, showing great potential for treatment of conditions involving muscle wasting.
