View Study ((Annals of Translational Medicine))02 Agonists of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) inhibit human experimental cancers
GHRH agonists like Sermorelin inhibited tumor growth by regulating the expression of key proteins in cancer cells.
View Study ((Li Ka Shing Foundation))03 GHRH and sleep
Sermorelin was shown to promote deep, non-REM sleep by stimulating growth hormone release, making it a potential therapeutic target for sleep disorders.
