What is Adipotide 2mg?
Adipotide (FTPP — Prohibitin-targeting peptide) is a chimeric proapoptotic peptide that selectively targets the vasculature feeding white adipose tissue. The peptide binds prohibitin on adipose endothelial cells, disrupting mitochondrial function and inducing apoptosis specifically in adipose-feeding blood vessels, causing adipose regression without affecting other tissues. First characterised in NHP (non-human primate) models where it produced substantial fat mass reduction.
Research Applications
White Adipose Vascular Targeting
Selective apoptosis induction in adipose vasculature via prohibitin binding. Research models: DIO rodents, NHP obesity models. Readouts: fat mass (EchoMRI), adipose vascular density, prohibitin expression.
Obesity Pharmacology — Non-GLP-1 Mechanism
Adipotide provides a mechanistically distinct alternative to GLP-1 agonism for obesity research — direct vascular targeting rather than appetite suppression. Enables comparison studies.
Prohibitin Biology Research
Prohibitin (PHB) is expressed on adipose endothelial cells but not other vascular beds. Adipotide exploits this specificity — relevant to PHB receptor biology and targeted delivery research.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I reconstitute this peptide?
Add 1–2mL bacteriostatic water to the lyophilized vial by directing water down the inner wall of the vial. Swirl gently until the powder fully dissolves — do not shake or vortex. The solution should be clear and colourless. Use immediately or refrigerate at 2–8°C.
How should this peptide be stored?
Store lyophilized peptide vials at −20°C for long-term storage. Once reconstituted, store at 2–8°C (refrigerator) and use within 21–28 days. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles, direct light, and heat exposure.
What purity is this QSC compound and how is it verified?
All QSC compounds are tested to ≥99% purity by HPLC peak area analysis on every production batch. Molecular identity is confirmed by mass spectrometry. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) is published on the product page and independently verifiable at verify.janoshik.com using the batch reference number.
