What Is SLU-PP-332 5mg?
SLU-PP-332 is a synthetic benzohydrazide developed at Saint Louis University as a chemical probe for the oestrogen-related receptor (ERR) family of orphan nuclear receptors. It activates all three isoforms, with reported EC50 values of about 98 nM at ERRα, 230 nM at ERRβ and 430 nM at ERRγ, and shows selectivity over the classical oestrogen receptors ERα and ERβ. Because ERRα is a master regulator of mitochondrial biogenesis and oxidative metabolism, SLU-PP-332 is widely described in the literature as an “exercise mimetic” research tool.
In the characterising study (Billon et al., ACS Chemical Biology, 2023), the compound induced an ERRα-dependent transcriptional programme in C2C12 skeletal-muscle cells, increased mitochondrial respiration and oxidative gene expression, and raised the proportion of oxidative type IIa fibres in rodent muscle. Published work can be explored on PubMed. SLU-PP-332 5mg is a small molecule rather than a peptide, so it sits alongside our other metabolic research compounds rather than the peptide range.
SLU-PP-332 5mg Research Applications
SLU-PP-332 5mg is typically investigated in laboratory settings such as:
- Nuclear receptor pharmacology: ERRα/β/γ reporter and transactivation assays, and selectivity profiling against related receptors.
- Mitochondrial biogenesis: oxygen-consumption and mitochondrial-content assays in myotube culture, following the C2C12 model.
- Exercise-mimetic transcription: quantifying ERRα target genes and the oxidative gene programme in skeletal-muscle cell lines.
- Metabolic comparison studies: side-by-side work with mitochondria-targeting peptides such as MOTS-c 10mg and SS-31 10mg, or NAD+-pathway compounds such as NAD+ 1000mg.

Quality Control and Batch Testing
Every batch of SLU-PP-332 5mg is analysed before release. HPLC confirms purity and mass spectrometry confirms the compound is present at the expected mass. You can view current certificates on our verification and testing page.
Storage and Handling
Store the powder at −20°C, desiccated and protected from light. Unlike our lyophilised peptides, SLU-PP-332 is practically insoluble in water and should not be reconstituted with bacteriostatic water. Prepare a concentrated stock in anhydrous DMSO (brief sonication helps), aliquot to avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles, store aliquots at −80°C and dilute into aqueous buffer or culture medium immediately before use, keeping the final DMSO concentration below 0.1%. See our guide on how to store research compounds.
Research Use Only
SLU-PP-332 5mg is supplied strictly for in-vitro laboratory research. It is not a medicine, supplement or cosmetic product. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease, and it is not for human or veterinary use. By purchasing, you confirm that the product will be used solely for lawful laboratory research.
SLU-PP-332 5mg FAQs
What is SLU-PP-332?
SLU-PP-332 is a synthetic small molecule that activates the oestrogen-related receptors ERRα, ERRβ and ERRγ, with the highest potency at ERRα. It is studied as an exercise-mimetic probe of mitochondrial and oxidative metabolism.
Is SLU-PP-332 a peptide?
No. It is a benzohydrazide small molecule (C18H14N2O2, 290.32 g/mol), which is why its handling differs from our peptide range.
How do I dissolve SLU-PP-332 5mg?
Prepare a DMSO stock and dilute into aqueous buffer immediately before use. It is not water-soluble and bacteriostatic water is not a suitable solvent.
How is SLU-PP-332 5mg tested?
Every batch is tested to ≥99% purity by HPLC, with identity confirmed by mass spectrometry, at an ISO 17025 accredited third-party laboratory.
How should SLU-PP-332 5mg be stored?
Keep the powder at −20°C, desiccated and protected from light. Store DMSO stock solutions at −80°C in single-use aliquots.
Is SLU-PP-332 5mg for human use?
No. It is supplied strictly for in-vitro laboratory research and is not for human or veterinary use.
