Common questions
About this material
Answers describe what the published research examines and where the evidence is limited. They are not claims of any effect; this material is supplied for laboratory research use only.
What is ARA-290?
ARA-290, also called cibinetide, is an 11-amino-acid peptide engineered from a tissue-protective region of erythropoietin (EPO). It is 'non-erythropoietic,' meaning it does not stimulate red-blood-cell production. It is supplied here as an analytical-grade reference material for laboratory research use only.
How is ARA-290 different from EPO?
EPO both makes red blood cells and protects stressed tissue, through different receptors. ARA-290 was designed to activate only the tissue-protective, anti-inflammatory pathway, the innate repair receptor, without raising red-blood-cell counts, which avoids the blood-related risks associated with EPO.
Does ARA-290 have human clinical trials?
Yes, which is unusual for this category. It has been examined in small phase 2 trials in small-fiber neuropathy (in sarcoidosis and type 2 diabetes) and in diabetic macular edema. These are early-phase studies, however, and the results are preliminary and await larger confirmation.
Why is ARA-290 reconstituted with PBS instead of bacteriostatic water?
ARA-290 reference material is typically prepared in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) rather than bacteriostatic water, following supplier guidance for its solubility and stability. Always follow the product's own reconstitution reference.
How is ARA-290 supplied and handled?
ARA-290 ships as a lyophilized powder and is reconstituted in the laboratory with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). It should be kept cold and dark and protected from freeze-thaw cycles. It is intended for laboratory research use only, not for human or veterinary use.
