GHRP-2
D-alanyl-D-2-naphthylalanyl-L-alanyl-L-tryptophyl-D-phenylalanyl-L-lysinamide
GHRP-2 (Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide-2) is a synthetic hexapeptide developed as a second-generation growth hormone secretagogue by Bowers and colleagues in the early 1990s. Also known as pralmorelin in clinical literature, it potently stimulates growth hormone release through GHS-R1a receptor activation. GHRP-2 incorporates D-amino acids for enhanced stability and resistance to enzymatic degradation, making it significantly more potent than earlier analogs like GHRP-6.
