Biochem/physiol Actions

Hexarelin (HEX), a ghrelin analogue, is a growth hormone secretagogue receptor agonist, a growth hormone releasing peptide. Hexarelin may be used as an internal standard in quantitative analysis (via chromatography etc.) of prohibited growth hormone enhancing drugs such as GHRP-2. The potential use of Hexarelin as a therapeutic has prompted research studies on its physiological effects in vitro and in vivo.

Some invasive hymenopteran social insects found new populations with very few reproductive individuals. This is despite the high cost of founder effects for such insects, which generally require heterozygosity at a single locus-the complementary sex determiner, csd-to develop as females.
