Adipotide
Research profile · How we handle evidence
Adipotide is an experimental peptide that’s been studied in animals for possible fat-targeting effects. The hypothesis is that it may bind to the micro-blood vessels that help sustain white fat, which could change how readily that tissue persists.

Overview
Adipotide isn’t supposed to behave like a straightforward “fat burner.” It’s designed around a targeting idea: aim for the small blood vessels feeding white fat. In animal work, that disruption is one proposed route to lower fat tissue survival.
