SLU-PP-332: research overview
Looking for SLU-PP-332 for research? This reagent comes in 5, 10 and 20 mg vials with purity of 99% or higher confirmed by HPLC and mass confirmed by MS.
What is SLU-PP-332
SLU-PP-332 is a small organic molecule, not a peptide. It has no amino acid sequence, so in the laboratory it is handled as a chemical compound with a known formula, mass and structure. It is produced by chemical synthesis and supplied as a lyophilised powder in a vial.
The compound is described in the literature as an agonist of ERR receptors (ERRα, ERRβ and ERRγ), a family of nuclear receptors involved in regulating cellular energy metabolism. For research teams it is a tool for studying energy pathways.
Mechanism described in research
ERR receptors act as transcription factors, which means they influence which genes are switched on and off. Researchers use agonists from this family to map the signalling networks that connect energy metabolism with mitochondrial function.
- In vitro studies have observed changes in the expression of genes linked to mitochondrial metabolism.
- Animal model studies have examined mitochondrial biogenesis and energy use in tissues with high energy demand.
- The full mechanism is still under investigation, and results depend on the model and the experimental conditions.
Research areas
- Energy metabolism and mitochondrial function in cell models
- Mitochondrial biogenesis in tissue models
- Regulation of metabolic genes and ERR-dependent pathways
- Comparative studies alongside other tools for nuclear receptor research

Working in the laboratory
Storing the lyophilised powder
- Store at -20 °C, tightly sealed and protected from light.
- Before opening, let the vial reach room temperature to limit moisture condensation.
Dissolving and storing solutions
- Dissolution is carried out in your laboratory, following your research protocol.
- Keep the prepared solution at 2-8 °C.
- Avoid repeated freezing and thawing, and divide the solution into aliquots to limit the number of freeze-thaw cycles.
The role of the solvent
The choice of solvent depends on the structure of the molecule and on the requirements of the study. Always confirm solubility and the target concentration against your study protocol.
Batch quality
- HPLC: purity determination, result of 99% or higher.
- MS: confirmation of the molecular mass, 290.3 g/mol.
