CBL-514: research overview
What CBL-514 is
CBL-514 is a small molecule, a compound with a low molecular mass. We supply it as a lyophilized powder, a dry form that you reconstitute in the laboratory right before the work begins. MOLEVIA sells CBL-514 strictly as a research chemical (Research Use Only).
CBL-514 has been studied clinically in the context of local lipolysis. For research teams it is a practical starting point for work on in vitro and animal models, especially where a precisely defined substance with repeatable quality matters for the study design.
Mechanism described in research
Lipolysis is the breakdown of stored triglycerides in fat cells into fatty acids and glycerol. Studies on CBL-514 have examined how the compound affects this pathway in adipose tissue. The course of the process and the way the effect is read depend on the experimental model, so the research team defines the protocol conditions for its own study.
Research areas
- Lipolysis pathways in adipocytes in in vitro models
- Local lipolysis in tissue-level research
- Animal models of metabolic processes in adipose tissue

Working in the laboratory
Lyophilized powder
Store the vial at -20 °C, tightly closed, away from light and moisture. Before opening it, let it reach room temperature so that no water vapour condenses on the substance.
Dissolving
Select the solvent for your specific study plan. In laboratory practice, water is the most common choice because it is a neutral carrier. Diluted acetic acid is another option when a substance dissolves poorly in water. The research team decides the role of the solvent for each study rather than picking one at random.
Solution
Once dissolved, keep the solution at 2-8 °C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing, and split larger amounts into aliquots so every portion stays intact until the series is complete.
Batch quality
Every batch of CBL-514 goes through two checks:
- HPLC: purity of at least 99%
- MS: confirmation of molecular mass
This means results from repeat orders are comparable, and your data rests on a solid base.
