Adipotide was developed and placed into phase I clinical trials in 2011 to investigate its ability to kill fat cells. Tests in rhesus monkeys revealed that adipotide causes targeted apoptosis in the blood vessels of white adipose tissue (fat). Without a blood supply, the fat cells simply died. The net result was rapid weight loss, rapid decrease in body mass index (BMI), and improved insulin resistance characteristics. Interestingly, treatment with adipotide and subsequent fat loss not only improved weight, but actually contributed to changes in eating behavior. Monkeys who lost weight with adipotide also showed a decrease in food consumption[1].

A. Percent weight loss in control groups (blue) versus those treated with adipotide (two differing doses, shown in red)
B. Percent reduction in BMI (control versus treatment)

A. Shows the change in insulin requirements (area under the curve) for treated (red) and control (blue) groups. The AUC was calculated from an IVGTT test.
B. Shows the insulinogenic index for before and after in the treatment (red) and control (blue) groups. Treated groups show a dramatic decrease in insulin secretion.
C. Change in biscuit consumption in treated (red) and control (blue) groups.

The targeting of adipotide to the blood vessels serving fat cells may be mediated by a protein receptor called prohibitin. Prohibitin is a membrane protein that may only be found in blood vessels serving white fat and in cancer cells. It has been demonstrated that adipotide associates with this protein[2]. If it turns out that prohibitin is found only in fat vasculature and cancer tissue, then adipotide testing will be responsible for identifying a fat-specific target that can be used not just for therapeutic purposes, but for diagnostic purposes as well.
