Adipotide (FTPP)
Also known as: FTPP, Prohibitin-TP01
Molecular Overview
Adipotide is a proapoptotic peptidomimetic studied in obesity research models for selective targeting of white-adipose vasculature.
Mechanistic Background
Homing-peptide sequence directs a proapoptotic motif to prohibitin-expressing endothelium in animal models.
What Researchers Study
Rodent and non-human-primate studies published in the early 2010s.
Evidence Landscape
Current evidence level: PRECLINICAL. Preclinical evidence does not equate to demonstrated human efficacy.
Research Limitations
Notable renal safety signals in animal studies; no human approval.
