what each one is
AOD-9604
Modified human growth hormone fragment
AOD-9604 is a synthetic peptide corresponding to the C-terminal 176–191 fragment of human growth hormone, modified by the addition of a tyrosine residue at the N-terminus to improve stability. Unlike the full-length hormone, the fragment lacks the regions associated with growth-hormone receptor binding, which is what makes it useful as a dissociated structural probe in research.
