Research Applications
Areas of investigation in the preclinical literature
Mitochondrial
Mitochondrial-Derived Peptide Biology
Studied in the literature on mitochondrial-derived peptides (MDPs), a class of short peptides encoded within the mitochondrial genome. Investigated as a model compound for characterizing this signaling-peptide family in vitro.
Cellular
AMPK Pathway Signaling Research
Examined in preclinical and cell-based studies of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) pathway activation. Used as a probe in research on cellular metabolic-stress signaling cascades.
Metabolic Pathways
Folate-Methionine Cycle Research
Investigated in in-vitro research on the folate-methionine one-carbon cycle and its tethered de novo purine biosynthesis pathway, including accumulation of the AICAR intermediate.
Gene Regulation
Nuclear Translocation Signaling
Studied in cell-based models of stress-responsive nuclear translocation and adaptive transcriptional regulation. A subject of research into how mitochondrial-encoded peptides participate in nuclear gene-expression signaling.
Skeletal Muscle
Metabolic Signaling in Muscle Tissue
Investigated in preclinical models of skeletal-muscle metabolic signaling and mitochondrial molecular pathways. Referenced in the literature as a tool compound for such mechanistic studies.

Compliance & research overview
Regulatory & Research Status
FDA Status
Not approved for human use. Sold for laboratory research use only.
Research Status
Studied in preclinical and in-vitro research literature.
Research Disclaimer
For laboratory and research purposes only. Not for human or animal consumption.
This compound is supplied strictly for in-vitro laboratory research and scientific study by qualified researchers. It is not for human or veterinary use, consumption, or cosmetic application.
Who tests it and how do I verify purity? ▼
Every batch is independently tested by Horizon Analytical (USA) — HPLC purity analysis and mass-spectrometry identity confirmation. The lot-matched Certificate of Analysis is published in our COA Library, and our results are cross-checked live by the independent watchdog PepAssure.
How is it stored and shipped? ▼
The compound ships as a stable lyophilized powder that is room-temperature stable and does not require cold-chain shipping. Orders are dispatched within roughly 48 hours by UPS Ground in plain, unmarked packaging. We ship within the United States only.
What is used to reconstitute it? ▼
Lyophilized research compounds are reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, which is sold separately. The reconstitution volume is determined by the researcher; we do not provide any protocol or dosing guidance.
Do you offer discounts for larger orders? ▼
Yes. Order 2 items for 3.5% off, or 3 or more items for 5% off — the discount applies automatically at checkout and you can mix any compounds. Orders over $200 also ship free, and paying with crypto saves an additional 5%.
