Doses studied in research Animal or lab studies only
What was given to people (or animals) in published studies and official labels, each linked to its source. This is not a recommendation: study products, purity and supervision differ from research-grade vials.
Animal studies: Given by injection to obese mice (Kolonin 2004; mouse glucose-tolerance study 2012) and to obese Old World monkeys of three species (Barnhart 2011) at 'experimentally determined optimal doses'; the PubMed abstracts do not state the mg/kg amounts.
No human trial results were found in PubMed. In monkeys, the doses studied produced dose-related, reversible kidney (proximal tubule) changes. Doses in animal studies do not translate directly to people.
What the research says
Adipotide (a peptide that targets prohibitin on fat-tissue blood vessels and triggers their destruction) caused fat loss and better insulin sensitivity in obese mice and monkeys, but monkeys showed dose-related kidney (proximal tubule) changes; no human trial results were found in PubMed, and one commentary questions whether the weight loss mainly reflects reduced eating.

-
A peptidomimetic targeting white fat causes weight loss and improved insulin resistance in obese monkeys.Animalssize not reportedIn vivo treatment study of adipotide
In obese Old World monkeys, adipotide destroyed fat-tissue blood vessels, causing rapid weight and fat loss and improved insulin resistance, but produced predictable, reversible changes in kidney proximal tubule function.
Study details
- Studied
- Obese Old World monkeys (three species)
- Main outcome
- Body weight, white adipose tissue (MRI/DXA), insulin resistance, renal function
- Authors' conclusion
- Adipotide induced apoptosis in white adipose tissue vessels with rapid weight loss and improved insulin resistance in obese monkeys, with predictable and reversible changes in renal proximal tubule function.
- Limitations
- Monkey study; reversible kidney tubule changes at effective doses; group sizes not in abstract. The figures file for this PMID shows a different (baboon) paper, so none is shown.
-
Reversal of obesity by targeted ablation of adipose tissue.Animalssize not reportedPreclinical identification of an adipose-vasculature homing peptide and targeted proapoptotic therapy
Discovery study: a fat-vessel-homing peptide (CKGGRAKDC) fused to a cell-killing peptide ablated white fat and rapidly reversed obesity in mice, with no adverse effects detected.
Study details
- Studied
- Obese mice (in vivo phage display, prohibitin targeting)
- Main outcome
- White fat ablation, obesity reversal, metabolism
- Authors' conclusion
- Targeting a proapoptotic peptide to prohibitin in adipose vasculature ablated white fat and reversed obesity without detectable adverse effects; prohibitin is also expressed in human white fat vessels, so this may lead to targeted drugs.
- Limitations
- Animal study; group sizes not given in the abstract.
-
Rapid and weight-independent improvement of glucose tolerance induced by a peptide designed to elicit apoptosis in adipose tissue endothelium.Animalssize not reportedSham/vehicle controlGlucose tolerance tested on days 2 and 3 of treatmentVehicle vs proapoptotic peptide vs pair-fed controls, with glucose tolerance tests and microarray
In obese mice on a high-fat diet, the pro-apoptotic fat-vessel peptide improved glucose tolerance within days, independent of weight change or food intake.
Study details
- Studied
- Obese mice on a high-fat diet
- Compared with
- Vehicle and pair-fed mice
- Main outcome
- Glucose tolerance, serum metabolic variables, adipose tissue gene expression
- Authors' conclusion
- The proapoptotic peptide rapidly improved glucose tolerance independent of weight and food intake and reversed high-fat-diet gene expression changes, suggesting a role of adipose vasculature in glucose and lipid homeostasis.
- Limitations
- Mouse study; group sizes not in the abstract.
-
A comparative study between nanoparticle-targeted therapeutics and bioconjugates as obesity medication.Animalssize not reportedComparison of prohibitin-targeted nanoparticle encapsulating KLA peptide vs bioconjugate (Adipotide)
In diet-induced obese mice, a low dose of the same targeting/kill peptide delivered in nanoparticles reduced weight and ectopic fat, whereas the free bioconjugate (adipotide) at that dose did not.
Study details
- Studied
- Diet-induced obese mice
- Compared with
- Adipotide bioconjugate
- Main outcome
- Body weight, serum leptin and adiponectin, ectopic fat
- Authors' conclusion
- A low dose of the KLA nanoparticle, rather than the Adipotide bioconjugate, reduced body weight and ectopic liver and muscle fat with no detectable hepatotoxicity; vascular-targeted nanotherapy may help control adipose function.
- Limitations
- Mouse study; this paper favors the nanoparticle over Adipotide.
-
Comment on "a peptidomimetic targeting white fat causes weight loss and improved insulin resistance in obese monkeys".No new dataComment / letter
Commentary argues the monkey weight loss with adipotide may reflect a direct reduction in food consumption rather than fat-vessel destruction.
Study details
- Studied
- Commentary on the obese-monkey adipotide study
- Authors' conclusion
- The commenters suggest the weight loss in monkeys attributed to apoptosis of fat blood vessels may instead reflect a direct effect of adipotide on food consumption.
- Limitations
- Commentary without original data.
Reported side effects

Adipotide: questions people ask
What is Adipotide?
Fat-vessel-targeting peptide (FTPP). Binds a protein on the blood vessels that feed white fat and triggers their death, shrinking fat tissue. Studied in obese monkeys; kidney side effects were seen.
How much does Adipotide cost?
The cheapest Adipotide from an independently tested vendor is $1.65 per mg (Uther, Adipotide 10mg (10 Vials / Kit), $165.00). Across 26 listings from 17 vendors the median is $5.50 per mg.
Where can I buy Adipotide?
17 vendors tested by Finnrick sell Adipotide. The cheapest per mg right now: Uther ($1.65), Andy Peps Studio ($3.50), Baohua Dongnuo Biotechnology BHD ($3.50). 2 of them publish a lab report (COA) for Adipotide; compare lab scores and reports in the table above before buying.
How much bacteriostatic water for 5 mg of Adipotide?
Adding 2 mL of bacteriostatic water to a 5 mg vial of Adipotide gives 2.5 mg/mL: each 10 units on a U-100 insulin syringe holds 250 mcg. With 1 mL it's 5 mg/mL (500 mcg per 10 units); with 3 mL, 1.667 mg/mL (166.7 mcg per 10 units). More water makes small amounts easier to measure. Mixing charts: 2 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg.
Is Adipotide FDA approved?
Not approved. Research use only.
Can Adipotide be compounded in the US?
Not an FDA-approved drug and not nominated for FDA's 503A bulks list, so US pharmacies can't legally compound it. Compounding status for every peptide.
Does Adipotide work? What does the research say?
Evidence grade C (mostly animal studies), from 5 papers: Only animal studies: fat loss and better insulin sensitivity in obese mice and monkeys, with kidney changes in monkeys; no human trial results published. Adipotide (a peptide that targets prohibitin on fat-tissue blood vessels and triggers their destruction) caused fat loss and better insulin sensitivity in obese mice and monkeys, but monkeys showed dose-related kidney (proximal tubule) changes; no human trial results were found in PubMed, and one commentary questions whether the weight loss mainly reflects reduced eating. See the papers.
What dose of Adipotide was used in studies?
Adipotide is tested only in animals or cells. Given by injection to obese mice (Kolonin 2004; mouse glucose-tolerance study 2012) and to obese Old World monkeys of three species (Barnhart 2011) at 'experimentally determined optimal doses'; the PubMed abstracts do not state the mg/kg amounts. These are amounts used in published studies or official labels, not a recommendation.
