MK-677 is a drug that acts as a potent, orally effective growth-promoting hormone secretion that mimics the action of gh stimulating endogenous hormones.

Function

MK-677 has been shown to increase the release of, and produce sustained increases in plasma levels of, a number of hormones including gh and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), but does not affect cortisol levels.

Potential treatments are currently being developed to reduce the levels of these hormones, such as in children or older adults with growth hormone deficiency, and human studies have shown an increase in muscle and bone mineral density, making it a promising treatment for the frail elderly.

It also alters body fat metabolism, so may have applications in the treatment of obesity.
