What Is CJC-1295 DAC?

CJC-1295 DAC is a synthetic peptide designed to mimic the body’s natural Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone (GHRH). In preclinical and experimental models, CJC-1295 DAC binds to GHRH receptors in the anterior pituitary, initiating signaling that can enhance the secretion and circulation of growth hormone (GH).

Because of its ability to sustain elevated GH levels over time, CJC-1295 DAC is widely used in research exploring:

  • Growth hormone axis modulation

  • GH/IGF-1 signaling pathways

  • Metabolic and tissue-repair mechanisms

4Balance Peptides supplies research-grade CJC-1295 DAC (≥98% purity) for controlled in vitro and animal-model experiments. This compound is not for human or veterinary use.


How CJC-1295 DAC Works (Mechanism of Action)

CJC-1295 DAC is structurally similar to endogenous GHRH. This allows it to:

  • Bind GHRH receptors on somatotroph cells in the anterior pituitary

  • Stimulate GH synthesis and release into the bloodstream

  • Maintain elevated GH levels for several days in research models

Once released, GH acts on peripheral tissues and the liver, where it can influence downstream pathways including IGF-1 synthesis. This makes CJC-1295 DAC a useful tool for dissecting the GH/IGF-1 axis in metabolic, endocrine, and regenerative research.


Extended Half-Life: DAC Technology and Albumin Binding

The defining feature of CJC-1295 DAC is its extended half-life (approximately 6–8 days in many models), which is significantly longer than traditional GHRH analogs.

This is achieved via Drug Affinity Complex (DAC) technology:

  • The DAC modification allows CJC-1295 to bind serum albumin in the bloodstream

  • Albumin binding protects the peptide from rapid degradation and clearance

  • This bio-conjugation enables a slow, sustained release and prolonged receptor stimulation

For researchers, this means:

  • Less frequent dosing in long-term protocols

  • More stable GH elevation over time

  • A convenient model for chronic GH-axis manipulation


Indirect Role in IGF-1 Production

CJC-1295 DAC does not only influence GH levels. In research settings:

  1. CJC-1295 DAC → Increased GH via pituitary stimulation

  2. GH → Stimulates the liver

  3. Liver → Produces Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1)

Studies have reported that CJC-1295 DAC can increase both GH and IGF-1 concentrations, allowing investigators to examine:

  • IGF-1–mediated cell proliferation and survival

  • Tissue repair and regeneration signaling

  • Metabolic and anabolic pathways involving the GH/IGF-1 axis
