Overview
Cibinetide (ARA-290) is an engineered 11-amino-acid peptide, beginning with an N-terminal pyroglutamate, designed to mimic the three-dimensional helix-B surface domain of erythropoietin (EPO). Its defined structure (C51H84N16O21; 1257.3 g/mol) is documented in the PubChem compound record.
The peptide is designed to bind selectively to the non-hematopoietic, tissue-protective receptor thought to be a heterocomplex of the EPO receptor and the beta-common receptor (CD131), rather than the classical hematopoietic EPO receptor. In preclinical and early clinical research it has been examined for tissue-protective and anti-inflammatory signaling and in neuropathic-pain models. These are research findings; the molecule is investigational and its therapeutic value is not established.
BioTech Pharma supplies ARA-290 / cibinetide as a lyophilized powder offered strictly as a laboratory reference peptide; it is not a drug or a product for human or veterinary use. Lot-specific analytical documentation may be available and should be confirmed for the applicable material.
Research Applications
- Non-hematopoietic (innate repair receptor) EPO signaling
- Tissue-protective and anti-inflammatory pathway research
- Neuropathic-pain and small-fiber model studies
- EPO structure-mimetic peptide design
- Cytokine and immune-modulation research models

Analytical Data
Lot-specific documentation may be available for the applicable material and must be confirmed per enquiry. Where available, it may include:
- HPLC purity result
- LC-MS identity confirmation
- Appearance
- Net content
Request the records you need with your quote and we will confirm availability for your batch.
Procurement Details
Availability, lead time, salt / content basis, and cold-chain requirements depend on the specific lot and quantity, so we confirm them per enquiry rather than publishing fixed figures. Request confirmation for your requirements with your quote and our team will respond with details for the applicable batch.
Storage & Handling
Lyophilized: store sealed at −20 °C, protected from light and moisture. Reconstituted solutions should be kept refrigerated (2–8 °C); prepared-solution stability is lot-specific and should be verified empirically for each protocol. Prepared-solution stability should be confirmed for the applicable material.
