Adipotide
Research OnlyFTPP
A highly experimental proapoptotic peptide that selectively destroys the blood supply to white adipose tissue. Dramatic fat loss in animal models but significant renal toxicity concerns.
Macimorelin
FDA ApprovedAEZS-130
An orally active ghrelin receptor agonist FDA-approved as a diagnostic test for adult growth hormone deficiency. Provides a convenient oral GH stimulation test.
PNC-27
Research OnlyPNC27
A chimeric anticancer peptide fusing a p53 MDM-2 binding domain with a penetratin membrane-translocation region. Selectively forms pores in cancer cell membranes that overexpress HDM-2 (human MDM-2 oncoprotein), causing rapid membranolysis and cancer cell death while sparing normal cells.
