Molecular Structure:

Description:

Adipotide is a synthetic peptidomimetic designed to target specific receptors on the vasculature of white adipose tissue, delivering a pro-apoptotic signal to fat-specific blood vessels. The sequence includes D-amino acids for improved resistance to proteolytic degradation and selectivity. This compound features two disulfide bridges that contribute to its structural stability in research environments. Adipotide is supplied in lyophilized powder form and intended strictly for in vitro laboratory use.

Research Applications:

Adipotide is currently under evaluation in laboratory settings for its potential to:

• Target Adipose Vasculature: Study peptide binding to prohibitin-containing receptor complexes on fat cell endothelium.
• Induce Apoptosis: Investigate mitochondrial pathway activation leading to selective fat mass reduction.
• Support Metabolic Research: Analyze systemic and localized metabolic effects in controlled models.
• Assess Stability and Selectivity: Explore resistance to enzymatic breakdown and tissue-specific uptake.

Storage and Handling:

• Store lyophilized powder at -20°C.
• Once reconstituted, store at 2–8°C and use promptly.
• Use aseptic handling protocols to preserve sterility.

Product Specifications:

• Purity: ≥99% (HPLC Certified)
• Appearance: Lyophilized white powder
• Solubility: Soluble in bacteriostatic water
