Description
Adipotide (FTPP) is a synthetic peptide conjugate that pairs a targeting sequence recognizing prohibitin, a protein expressed on the surface of blood vessels supplying white adipose tissue, with a pro-apoptotic peptide payload. This targeted design is Adipotide's defining research mechanism: rather than acting on appetite or metabolic hormone receptors, the compound is engineered to selectively induce apoptosis in the vascular endothelium feeding fat tissue, causing regression of adipose mass through vascular disruption rather than through classical lipolytic signaling. Preclinical research, including a notable study in obese rhesus monkeys published by MD Anderson Cancer Center researchers, documented significant weight loss and improved insulin sensitivity following Adipotide administration, establishing it as one of the more mechanistically distinct compounds in obesity research — studied for vascular-targeted fat reduction rather than the incretin or secretagogue pathways used by most other metabolic research peptides.
At the molecular level, Adipotide is designed to bind to specific surface markers expressed in adipose tissue vasculature, enabling researchers to explore mechanisms related to angiogenesis, mitochondrial signaling, and apoptosis-associated cascades in non-clinical models. These interactions make Adipotide a valuable tool for investigating adipose tissue dynamics, metabolic signaling networks, and tissue-specific vascular responses.
Adipotide is supplied as a lyophilised solid to preserve molecular stability and integrity during laboratory handling and storage. This compound is manufactured exclusively for research and laboratory use only and is not intended for human or veterinary application.
Mechanism of Action & Pathways
Adipotide is studied for its affinity toward molecular markers expressed in adipose-associated vascular endothelium. Research focuses on its ability to influence intracellular signaling pathways linked to mitochondrial function, energy regulation, and apoptosis-related cascades within targeted tissue environments.
Cellular & Metabolic Research
In cellular research settings, Adipotide is utilised to examine:
-
Mitochondrial stress signaling
-
Cellular energy metabolism
-
Programmed cell death pathways in adipose-associated cells
These investigations are conducted exclusively in experimental, non-clinical models to better understand adipose tissue metabolism at the cellular level.
Tissue-Specific Research
Adipotide is primarily studied in:
-
Adipose tissue vascular systems
-
Fat-associated endothelial cell models
Research emphasises tissue-selective signaling, vascular response mechanisms, and adipose microenvironment interactions without clinical or therapeutic context.
Experimental Models
-
In vitro cell culture systems
-
Ex vivo tissue-based assays
-
Non-clinical in vivo research models
All research applications are exploratory and preclinical in nature.

Handled correctly, stability holds
All peptides are supplied as sterile, lyophilized powder and are stable when handled correctly.
Store vials in a cool, dry place away from heat and direct sunlight.
For optimal longevity, keep lyophilized peptides refrigerated to help maintain integrity.
Use an appropriate research diluent (for example, BAC water). Store the reconstituted solution in the refrigerator and use within 20–30 days for best stability.
Minimize exposure to moisture and repeated freeze–thaw cycles. Follow your institution's safety procedures when handling research materials.
Frequently Asked Questions
PRODUCT & PURITY
This product is offered for laboratory and research use only. It is not intended for human consumption, medical use, therapeutic use, or veterinary use.
Yes, all of our products are sterile and sealed with a sterility plug and safety cap.
Our products undergo quality control internally at our lab and then 3rd party tested at Bioviridian (at their Texas facility) prior to shipment. All of our COA's are then posted on our site immediately upon receipt.
99% or higher. Period. The expected purity is listed on the individual product page or Certificate of Analysis, when available.
No. We are a manufacturing company and because these products are sold for research purposes only, we do not provide dosing, administration, or medical-use guidance.
Unless specifically stated otherwise, these products are not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for therapeutic or diagnostic use.
STORAGE & STABILITY
As a lyophilized powder, peptides are stable. Delays in shipments up to 7 days will have zero to minimal impact on efficacy of peptides. Most precautionary efforts must be made to maintain temperature consistency once reconstituted.
Store the product according to the storage recommendations provided on the label or accompanying documentation in your shipment. Proper storage helps maintain product integrity during its shelf life. Most peptides have an expiration date of 2 years if kept unreconstituted (lyophilized powder).
SHIPPING
Shipping times vary based on your location and the shipping method selected at checkout. We offer shipping options between 1 and 5 days.
No.
Once your order is processed, you will receive a shipping confirmation email with tracking information.
