HGH 176-191, also called HGH Fragment 176-191, is a short synthetic peptide built from 16 amino acids. It copies just the tail end of the human growth hormone molecule, and it is studied mostly for how that small piece interacts with fat-cell signaling pathways.
It sits within a broader body of growth-hormone research that has looked at how different parts of the molecule act on metabolic pathways (Ng & Bornstein, 1978, AJP). That focus on one defined fragment is what makes it a useful tool for structure-activity work.
