The &#8220;<strong>with DAC<\/strong>&#8221; suffix refers to a proprietary <strong>Drug Affinity Complex (DAC)<\/strong> \u2014 a maleimidopropionic acid residue attached to lysine-30 \u2014 which forms a covalent bond with serum albumin cysteine-34 <em>in vivo<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>That albumin tether is the key innovation. Native GHRH has a plasma half-life measured in minutes (rapid DPP-IV degradation); CJC-1295 with DAC circulates bound to albumin for approximately <strong>7 \u03b7\u03bc\u03ad\u03c1\u03b5\u03c2<\/strong>, enabling weekly or twice-weekly research dosing while sustaining GH\/IGF-1 elevation between injections. This is a fundamentally different pharmacokinetic profile from the &#8220;without DAC&#8221; version (sometimes called Mod GRF 1-29) which retains native GHRH&#8217;s short half-life. Developed by ConjuChem, CJC-1295 is <strong>for laboratory research use only<\/strong> and is not intended for human or veterinary diagnosis or therapy. For mechanism, research context, and stacking protocols, see our <a href=\"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/el\/ipamorelin-cjc-1295-stack-guide\/\">Ipamorelin &amp; CJC-1295 research guide<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Mechanism of Action \u2014 Extended-Release GHRH Agonism<\/h2>\n<p>CJC-1295 with DAC acts through two sequential mechanisms:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>GHRH receptor agonism<\/strong> \u2014 the peptide binds GHRH receptors on pituitary somatotropes, stimulating growth-hormone synthesis and release. This is the same receptor and downstream pathway as endogenous GHRH.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Albumin-tethered extended half-life<\/strong> \u2014 the DAC lysine side chain forms a Michael-addition covalent bond with the free thiol on albumin cysteine-34. Albumin&#8217;s ~20-day half-life carries the peptide with it, protecting CJC-1295 from rapid DPP-IV cleavage and extending functional plasma half-life to ~7 days. The result is sustained exposure of pituitary cells to GHRH signal rather than the short pulses seen with native GHRH.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hepatic IGF-1 amplification<\/strong> \u2014 elevated and sustained GH exposure drives hepatic IGF-1 production.

It is <strong>\u03b4\u03b5\u03bd<\/strong> FDA-approved and is sold here strictly for laboratory research use only.<\/p>\n<h3>What does &#8220;with DAC&#8221; mean?<\/h3>\n<p>DAC stands for <strong>Drug Affinity Complex<\/strong> \u2014 a maleimidopropionic-acid residue attached to the peptide that binds covalently to cysteine-34 on serum albumin. The albumin tether extends plasma half-life from ~30 minutes (native GHRH) to approximately 7 days, enabling weekly research dosing.<\/p>\n<h3>What is the difference between CJC-1295 with DAC and without DAC?<\/h3>\n<p>The core peptide sequence is the same. The &#8220;with DAC&#8221; version has the albumin-binding maleimide attached, giving ~7-day half-life and weekly dosing. The &#8220;without DAC&#8221; version (also called Mod GRF 1-29) lacks the albumin tether, has ~30-minute half-life, and requires multiple daily doses. Both have their research use cases. See our <a href=\"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/el\/cjc-1295-without-dac\/\">CJC-1295 without DAC product page<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>What is the typical CJC-1295 with DAC research dose?<\/h3>\n<p>Published preclinical protocols typically use 1\u20132\u00a0mg once weekly, or 300\u2013500\u00a0mcg twice weekly. A 2\u00a0mg vial reconstituted with 2.0\u00a0mL bacteriostatic water yields 1.0\u00a0mg\/mL \u2014 30 ticks on a U-100 syringe delivers 300\u00a0mcg.<\/p>\n<h3>Is CJC-1295 FDA approved?<\/h3>\n<p>No. CJC-1295 was originally developed by ConjuChem but never received FDA or EMA regulatory approval for any indication. All CJC-1295 sold by research-use-only suppliers is for laboratory investigation, not therapy.<\/p>\n<h3>How should CJC-1295 with DAC be stored?<\/h3>\n<p>Lyophilized vials: refrigerated at 2\u20138\u00a0\u00b0C in original packaging, stable up to 36 months. Reconstituted solution: refrigerated at 2\u20138\u00a0\u00b0C, use within 30 days. Do not freeze reconstituted solution.<\/p>\n<h3>How do I reconstitute CJC-1295 with DAC?<\/h3>\n<p>Follow the reconstitution chart above. Add bacteriostatic water down the side wall of the vial, swirl gently, and allow 5\u201310 minutes for full dissolution. Do <strong>\u03b4\u03b5\u03bd<\/strong> shake the vial.<\/p>\n<h3>Should I stack CJC-1295 with DAC with ipamorelin in research?<\/h3>\n<p>The CJC-1295 + ipamorelin pairing is the canonical GH-axis research stack. The two peptides bind different receptors (GHRH-R vs ghrelin-R) on the same pituitary cells, and their effects on GH release are synergistic \u2014 combined use produces larger GH pulses than either alone. See our <a href=\"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/el\/ipamorelin-cjc-1295-stack-guide\/\">stack research guide<\/a> for protocols.<\/p>\n<h3>What strengths does MedsBase stock?<\/h3>\n<p>MedsBase carries CJC-1295 with DAC in 2\u00a0mg and 5\u00a0mg lyophilized vials. Each strength is available in 10-vial, 20-vial, or 30-vial pack sizes. All vials are supplied at 99%+ HPLC purity with a certificate of analysis on request.<\/p>\n<h3>Does CJC-1295 with DAC cause side effects in research?<\/h3>\n<p>Published preclinical research has reported a reasonable safety profile at typical research doses. The most commonly reported finding is transient injection-site redness. Long-term human safety data are not available because human trials were discontinued. Some studies have identified a risk of &#8220;GH bleed&#8221; (sustained elevation producing IGF-1 saturation) with very high doses.<\/p>\n<h3>What is the half-life of CJC-1295 With DAC?<\/h3>\n<p>CJC-1295 with DAC has a half-life of approximately 6\u20138 days, achieved through the Drug Affinity Complex (DAC) technology \u2014 a maleimidopropionic acid group that forms a covalent bond with circulating serum albumin. This dramatically extends the dosing interval; most research protocols use once-weekly or twice-weekly administration.<\/p>\n<h3>What does DAC mean in CJC-1295 with DAC?<\/h3>\n<p>DAC stands for Drug Affinity Complex \u2014 a reactive group attached to the peptide that, once injected, binds covalently to circulating albumin (half-life ~19 days), dramatically extending the peptide&#8217;s active period. The result is a continuous, non-pulsatile GH release pattern (often called a &#8220;GH bleed&#8221;), which differs from the pulsatile secretion produced by CJC-1295 without DAC or by Sermorelin.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I order CJC-1295 with DAC for international shipping?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes. MedsBase ships CJC-1295 with DAC worldwide from our dedicated peptide shipping network. Peptide-only orders qualify for our standalone peptide shipping service. Orders ship in temperature-controlled packaging with full tracking.<\/p>\n<p><!-- medsbase-related-alts-v1 --><\/p>\n<h2>\u0386\u03bb\u03bb\u03b1 \u03c0\u03b5\u03c0\u03c4\u03af\u03b4\u03b9\u03b1 \u03b3\u03b9\u03b1 \u03ad\u03c1\u03b5\u03c5\u03bd\u03b1 \u03b1\u03bd\u03ac\u03ba\u03b1\u03bc\u03c8\u03b7\u03c2 \u03ba\u03b1\u03b9 \u03b1\u03c0\u03cc\u03b4\u03bf\u03c3\u03b7\u03c2<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"\/el\/bpc-157\/\"><strong>BPC-157<\/strong><\/a> \u2014 Body Protection Compound \u2014 \u03ad\u03c1\u03b5\u03c5\u03bd\u03b1 \u03b1\u03bd\u03ac\u03ba\u03b1\u03bc\u03c8\u03b7\u03c2 \u03c4\u03ad\u03bd\u03bf\u03bd\u03c4\u03b1, \u03c3\u03c5\u03bd\u03b4\u03ad\u03c3\u03bc\u03bf\u03c5, \u03b5\u03bd\u03c4\u03ad\u03c1\u03bf\u03c5<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/el\/tb-500\/\"><strong>TB-500<\/strong><\/a> \u2014 \u0398\u03c1\u03b1\u03cd\u03c3\u03bc\u03b1 Thymosin Beta-4 \u2014 \u03ad\u03c1\u03b5\u03c5\u03bd\u03b1 \u03b1\u03bd\u03ac\u03ba\u03b1\u03bc\u03c8\u03b7\u03c2 \u03bc\u03b1\u03bb\u03b1\u03ba\u03ce\u03bd \u03b9\u03c3\u03c4\u03ce\u03bd \u03ba\u03b1\u03b9 \u03b1\u03b3\u03b3\u03b5\u03af\u03c9\u03bd<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/el\/ipamorelin\/\"><strong>\u0399\u03c0\u03b1\u03bc\u03bf\u03c1\u03b5\u03bb\u03af\u03bd\u03b7<\/strong><\/a> \u2014 \u0395\u03c0\u03b9\u03bb\u03b5\u03ba\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03cc\u03c2 \u03b1\u03b3\u03c9\u03bd\u03b9\u03c3\u03c4\u03ae\u03c2 ghrelin \u2014 \u03ba\u03b1\u03b8\u03b1\u03c1\u03cc\u03c2 \u03c0\u03b1\u03bb\u03bc\u03cc\u03c2 GH \u03c7\u03c9\u03c1\u03af\u03c2 \u03ba\u03bf\u03c1\u03c4\u03b9\u03b6\u03cc\u03bb\u03b7\/\u03c0\u03c1\u03bf\u03bb\u03b1\u03ba\u03c4\u03af\u03bd\u03b7<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/el\/ghk-cu\/\"><strong>GHK-Cu<\/strong><\/a> \u2014 \u03a0\u03b5\u03c0\u03c4\u03af\u03b4\u03b9\u03bf \u03c7\u03b1\u03bb\u03ba\u03bf\u03cd \u2014 \u03ad\u03c1\u03b5\u03c5\u03bd\u03b1 \u03b3\u03b9\u03b1 \u03b1\u03bd\u03b1\u03b3\u03ad\u03bd\u03bd\u03b7\u03c3\u03b7 \u03b4\u03ad\u03c1\u03bc\u03b1\u03c4\u03bf\u03c2 \u03ba\u03b1\u03b9 \u03c3\u03c5\u03bd\u03b4\u03b5\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03bf\u03cd \u03b9\u03c3\u03c4\u03bf\u03cd<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/el\/igf-1-lr3\/\"><strong>IGF-1 LR3<\/strong><\/a> \u2014 Long-R3 IGF-1 analog \u2014 anabolic \/ regenerative research<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><!-- medsbase-peptide-guide-cta --><\/p>\n<h2>\u03a0\u03b5\u03c1\u03b1\u03b9\u03c4\u03ad\u03c1\u03c9 \u03b1\u03bd\u03ac\u03b3\u03bd\u03c9\u03c3\u03b7<\/h2>\n<div style=\"background: #f4f8fb; border-left: 4px solid #2c7cb0; padding: 18px 22px; margin: 18px 0; border-radius: 4px;\">\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 8px 0;\"><strong>\ud83d\udcd6 \u039c\u03ac\u03b8\u03b5\u03c4\u03b5 \u03c4\u03b7\u03bd \u03ad\u03c1\u03b5\u03c5\u03bd\u03b1 \u03c0\u03af\u03c3\u03c9 \u03b1\u03c0\u03cc \u03b1\u03c5\u03c4\u03cc \u03c4\u03bf \u03c0\u03b5\u03c0\u03c4\u03af\u03b4\u03b9\u03bf<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0;\">\u0394\u03b9\u03b1\u03b2\u03ac\u03c3\u03c4\u03b5 \u03c4\u03bf\u03bd \u03c0\u03bb\u03ae\u03c1\u03b7 \u03b1\u03c0\u03bf\u03b4\u03b5\u03b9\u03ba\u03c4\u03b9\u03ba\u03ac \u03c4\u03b5\u03ba\u03bc\u03b7\u03c1\u03b9\u03c9\u03bc\u03ad\u03bd\u03bf \u03bf\u03b4\u03b7\u03b3\u03cc \u03bc\u03b1\u03c2: <a href=\"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/el\/ipamorelin-cjc-1295-stack-guide\/\"><strong>Ipamorelin &amp; CJC-1295 \u2014 mechanism, stacking &amp; protocols<\/strong><\/a>.
