About:
A prohibitin-targeting peptide that killed fat tissue blood vessels in primate studies, never taken through human obesity trials.
What does this peptide do?
Human evidence is limited or indirect. Research focuses on fat tissue.
Fat tissue research
Killed fat tissue blood vessels in primate studies.
Evidence grade
CHighest evidence grade among the graded claims: C. Grades reflect study strength, not benefit.
What are the benefits and side effects of this peptide
What research says it may help with
- Adipotide is a prohibitin-targeting peptidomimetic that produced weight loss in animal studies, including primates.
- It never progressed to human obesity trials, and kidney toxicity concerns are part of why.
- No human safety or dosing data was verified in the literature searched.
Who should avoid it
- People who are pregnant or breastfeeding
- Children and adolescents
- People with any kidney impairment, given toxicity signals reported in animal work
- Known hypersensitivity to peptide preparations
See the safety section. Absence of a flag is not evidence of safety.
A grade reflects evidence strength, not a recommendation to use this compound; a strong grade can attach to a harmful effect.
How to store this peptide
Typically sold as a lyophilized powder. Reconstituted solutions are perishable, need refrigeration, and require clean handling to avoid contamination.
Lyophilized storage
Store at −20 °C, protected from light.
Reconstituted storage
Keep at 2–8 °C and use within a short period. For longer storage, aliquot and freeze at −20 °C.
Storage Handling
Avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles. Let the vial reach room temperature before opening.
