AOD9604
Research context
Obese Zucker rats received oral AOD9604, a synthetic fragment analog of human growth hormone, for 19 days. Body-weight gain, adipose lipolytic activity, and euglycemic-clamp measurements were recorded.
What has been studied
- Obese Zucker rats
- Metabolic measurements
Ng et al. (2000) administered oral AOD9604 to obese Zucker rats for 19 days and recorded body-weight gain, adipose lipolytic activity, and euglycemic-clamp results. The cited work is a rat metabolic study.
These labels restate the setting of the cited paper. They are not new findings and do not describe a catalog material.

What remains uncertain
Limitations
These rat measurements do not establish a human weight or metabolic application. The note does not adopt development claims made in the paper.
