Enhances Tissue Regeneration

CJC-1295 can indirectly improve tissue regeneration of almost all body systems. Studies show that by stimulating the pituitary gland to release two vital hormones, GH and IGF-1, CJC-1295 may accelerate tissue repair after an injury:
1. GH repairs damaged tissues by stimulating the collagen synthesis in human tendon and skeletal muscle. [205]
2. IGF-1 has a potential role in enhancing stem cell repair after a kidney injury. [206]
3. Both GH and IGF-1 play a role in brain repair after an injury. [207-216]
4. Both GH and IGF-1 accelerates tissue repair by increasing collagen synthesis. [217-219]
5. As a GHRH, CJC-1295 accelerates the wound healing process by promoting formation of protective covering of damaged skin tissues. [220-221]
6. Recent evidence also demonstrates that CJC-1295 and other GHRHs can induce heart repair after myocardial infarction, by mechanisms involving a direct action on the heart cells (cardiomyocytes). [222-223]
7. GHRH promotes tissue regeneration by stimulating the proliferation of the cells of the pancreas while preventing programmed cell death (apoptosis). [224]
8. GHRH administration accelerates repair of tissue injury by increasing the number of cells needed for regeneration at the site of injury. [225-230]
9. GHRH administration can also help improve healing of debilitating injuries such as Achilles tendon rupture. [231]
