About Cjc-1295 With Dac - 5MG

CJC-1295 is a synthetic 29-amino-acid analog of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH), based on the biologically active GHRH(1-29) fragment. The peptide incorporates four amino-acid substitutions (positions 2, 8, 15 and 27) engineered to increase resistance to enzymatic degradation, most notably cleavage by dipeptidyl peptidase-IV (DPP-IV). This substituted backbone is the same core sequence marketed in research contexts as "Modified GRF (1-29)." In laboratory model systems it is studied as a tool for probing GHRH-receptor signaling and pulsatile growth-hormone release from the anterior pituitary.

Two forms circulate in research use. The "No DAC" form (Mod GRF 1-29) is the unconjugated peptide with a short plasma half-life, used to model discrete, transient GHRH pulses. The "With DAC" form appends a Drug Affinity Complex (DAC) moiety that binds serum albumin, substantially extending circulating half-life and enabling investigation of sustained GHRH-receptor exposure. The identity data listed here correspond to the No DAC (Mod GRF 1-29) backbone; the DAC form carries an additional lysine-linked maleimidopropionic acid conjugate and a correspondingly higher molecular weight. All material is supplied for laboratory research only.

Research use only — not for human or animal consumption. Per-batch documentation is provided with the material.

Handling and Storage Tips:

Keep peptides cold and away from light once received.

For short-term use (days to weeks), refrigeration at 4°C (39°F) is acceptable.

Lyophilized peptides are typically stable at room temperature for several weeks, making it suitable for moderate-term storage.

For long-term storage (months to years), it’s best to freeze peptides at -80°C (-112°F). Freezing optimally preserves peptide stability for extended periods.

Research Context
GHRH-receptor pharmacologyUsed as a receptor-selective probe to characterize GHRH-R binding, activation and downstream cAMP signaling in pituitary and heterologous cell systems.
Growth-hormone secretion dynamicsInvestigated as a tool for modeling pulsatile versus sustained GH release, particularly the contrast between the short-acting No DAC form and the long-acting DAC form.
Peptide stability engineeringServes as a reference example for studying how targeted amino-acid substitutions confer DPP-IV resistance and extend peptide half-life.
Endocrine-axis modelingApplied in research on the hypothalamic-pituitary GH axis and its interaction with downstream IGF-1 signaling.
Analytical method developmentUsed as a well-characterized reference peptide for HPLC and mass-spectrometry assay validation.
Research Findings

Published research on the CJC-1295 backbone has focused on the pharmacokinetic consequences of DPP-IV-resistant substitutions and albumin conjugation. Studies of the DAC-conjugated form report markedly prolonged circulating half-life relative to native GHRH, with sustained elevation of GH and IGF-1 in animal and early clinical model systems, whereas the unconjugated Mod GRF (1-29) form is characterized by rapid clearance and short, discrete secretory responses.

Comparative work in the GHRH-analog class has examined how conjugation strategy influences the amplitude and pattern of GH pulses, making CJC-1295 a frequently cited experimental system for distinguishing sustained-exposure from pulsatile GHRH-receptor stimulation.

History

CJC-1295 was developed in the early 2000s by ConjuChem Biotechnologies as part of a program applying Drug Affinity Complex technology to peptide hormones, extending GHRH(1-29) half-life by covalent conjugation to circulating albumin. The unconjugated substituted backbone (Modified GRF 1-29) subsequently became a widely used short-acting research counterpart, and both forms remain common reference tools in growth-hormone-axis studies.
