CJC-1295 NO DAC is a research peptide used in laboratory studies of GHRH receptor activity, peptide stability, and controlled signaling pathways in experimental models. This product is supplied strictly for research use only. It is not approved or intended for human or animal use, and any discussion of biological activity refers only to preclinical or in vitro research.
In contrast to DAC (Drug Affinity Complex) versions, which remain active for extended periods because of the affinity complex that binds to serum proteins, the NO-DAC form is intentionally brief in duration. This characteristic allows for more precise timing, closer alignment with natural GH pulsatility, and a cleaner signaling window that is often advantageous in controlled studies. Research protocols examining circadian influences, acute cellular responses, metabolic pathways, and tissue-specific GH interactions frequently utilize this short-acting design for data accuracy.
For laboratory applications, CJC-1295 NO DAC is typically supplied as a high purity, LPS-free peptide, manufactured under controlled conditions to support experimental consistency. Each batch is produced as an endotoxin-free peptide, with research peptides endotoxin tested to help ensure suitability for sensitive in-vitro and ex-vivo research environments. These quality attributes are particularly important in studies where immune activation, inflammatory signaling, or cellular stress responses may influence experimental outcomes.
This compound is intended strictly for research purposes only. Not for human or animal use.

What is CJC-1295 NO DAC?
CJC-1295 NO DAC is a laboratory research material used to study receptor signaling, peptide kinetics, and time-dependent endocrine pathway behavior in controlled experimental systems. References to biological effects are provided for scientific context only and must not be interpreted as claims of therapeutic, diagnostic, or clinical benefit. This product is not offered for human or veterinary use.
CJC-1295 (No DAC) is a synthetic 29-amino-acid analogue of the N-terminal fragment of growth-hormone-releasing hormone, GRF(1-29), carrying substitutions that reduce enzymatic cleavage at the dipeptidyl-peptidase site. It is supplied lyophilised and is soluble in aqueous buffer after reconstitution.3
Why is CJC-1295 NO DAC studied?
CJC-1295 (No DAC) is the modified GRF(1-29) sequence without the drug-affinity-complex linker. It is studied as the short-acting reference point for that chemistry: the same receptor-binding fragment, but without the albumin-conjugation chemistry that extends circulating half-life in the parent analogue.3
How is CJC-1295 NO DAC studied in the lab?
In laboratory models, this peptide is used to investigate receptor-mediated signaling events and downstream experimental readouts. Any references to endocrine pathways, IGF-1, or timing-dependent signaling are included only to describe research context and must not be interpreted as claims of human or animal use.
What has preclinical research reported?

CJC-1295 No DAC & Intestine
Researchers developed several stable analogues of growth hormone-releasing factor (GRF) and characterised their receptor activity. One potent analogue, GRF-6, caused severe diarrhea in monkeys during prolonged infusion but had no adverse effects in rats. Since GRF shares structural similarities with VIP/PACAP peptides, which are known to cause diarrhea when overproduced, the study examined whether GRF analogues interact with VIP/PACAP receptors.
Key Results:
- Native hGRF(1-29) had weak binding to rat and human VPAC1/VPAC2 receptors, while VIP bound strongly.
- GRF-6 showed weak binding to rat receptors but higher affinity for the human VPAC1 receptor (not VPAC2).
- In guinea pig pancreatic cells, all GRF analogues acted as full agonists, triggering enzyme release.
Conclusion
Unlike natural hGRF, GRF-6 selectively interacts with the human VPAC1 receptor, which likely explains the diarrhea observed in monkeys. The study highlights species differences in receptor response between the models tested.
GRF receptor activation (rat anterior pituitary)
hGRF(1-29) bioconjugates were shown to activate the growth-hormone-releasing-factor receptor on the rat anterior pituitary, establishing the receptor pharmacology of this sequence family.3
Forms studied and handling
Supplied as a lyophilised powder in a sealed vial. Published handling practice for research peptides of this class is cold, dry, light-protected storage of the lyophilised solid, with reconstituted material kept refrigerated and used within the stability window established by the laboratory. For laboratory research use only.

Storage conditions at a glance
| Lyophilized, in transit | Stable for shipping for up to 3–4 months |
|---|---|
| Lyophilized, short term | Room temperature is usually adequate for several weeks; refrigeration under 4°C (39°F) is generally acceptable |
| Lyophilized, long term | Freezer at -80°C (-112°F) for several months to years |
| After reconstitution | Refrigerated; stable for up to 30 days |
| Light and moisture | Keep cold and away from light in the original sealed vial |
Why the powder is stable
All of our products are manufactured using the lyophilization (freeze drying) process, which keeps them stable for shipping for up to 3–4 months.
Lyophilization is a unique dehydration process, also known as cryodesiccation, where the peptides are frozen and then subjected to low pressure. This causes the water in the peptide vial to sublimate directly from solid to gas, leaving behind a stable, crystalline white structure known as lyophilized peptide. The puffy white powder can be stored at room temperature until it is reconstituted with bacteriostatic water.
Storing vials on arrival
Once peptides have been received, it is imperative that they are kept cold and away from light. If the peptides will be used in the next several days, weeks or months, short-term refrigeration under 4°C (39°F) is generally acceptable. Lyophilized peptides are usually stable at room temperatures for several weeks or more, so if they will be utilized within weeks or months such storage is typically adequate.
For longer term storage (several months to years) it is more preferable to store peptides in a freezer at -80°C (-112°F). When storing peptides for months or even years, freezing is optimal in order to preserve the peptide’s stability.
After reconstitution
Once the peptides are reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, they must be stored in the fridge to maintain stability. After reconstitution, the peptides will remain stable for up to 30 days.
