    Pituitary Gland

    An endocrine gland that produces growth hormone and other critical hormones.

    Definition

    The pituitary gland is referenced across multiple peptide profiles as the target organ for growth hormone-related peptides. Ipamorelin stimulates GH release from the pituitary as a secretagogue. Sermorelin stimulates natural GH production from the pituitary gland. CJC-1295 amplifies GHRH signaling to the pituitary. These peptides work by enhancing the pituitary's own GH production rather than introducing exogenous growth hormone.
