Not yet audited

We have not published an audit on SLU-PP-322. Everything below is reference material, not our own reading of the literature, treat it as a starting point for questions, not as a grade.

How it is thought to work

SLU-PP-332 is a synthetic small-molecule pan-agonist of the estrogen-related receptors (ERRα, ERRβ, and ERRγ) that activates transcription factors controlling mitochondrial biogenesis, fatty acid oxidation, and aerobic gene programs, mimicking the effects of endurance exercise. [Source: Peptide Dosing Protocols]

SLU-PP-332 is a synthetic molecule that activates the same cellular switches (ERR receptors) that endurance exercise activates, prompting cells to build more mitochondria and burn more fat, but it does this pharmacologically rather than through physical training, which is why it is called an exercise mimetic.

Reported side effects

In mouse studies SLU-PP-332 showed no overt toxicity at the doses tested, but there is zero human safety data, and community users have informally reported appetite changes, sleep disruption, a stimulatory feeling, and increased resting heart rate.

Who should avoid it

Anyone who is pregnant, breastfeeding, under 18, has cancer, heart disease, liver or kidney problems, or is subject to WADA drug testing should avoid SLU-PP-332, and anyone else considering it should do so only under qualified clinician oversight given the complete absence of human safety data.

What gets monitored

Resting heart rate and blood pressure should be tracked periodically due to community reports of heart-rate changes. [Source: Peptide Dosing Protocols]

Common questions

What is SLU-PP-332 and what is it commonly researched for?

SLU-PP-332 is a synthetic small-molecule pan-ERR agonist developed in the Thomas Burris lab, often described as an exercise mimetic.

What is the starting dose of SLU-PP-332?

There is no human-validated starting dose; community patterns suggest doses ranging from 250 mcg to 1.5 mg once daily.

How are SLU-PP-332 tablets typically dosed?

SLU-PP-332 is commonly carried as a 50 mg oral tablet in a 60-tablet bottle.

What is the difference between SLU-PP-332 tablets and injectable vials?

Tablets are easier to handle and dose by bottle count, while injectable vials are used in animal studies.

What is SLU-PP-332's half-life?

A formal human pharmacokinetic half-life has not been published.

How do you reconstitute SLU-PP-332 injection vials?

For a 5 mg vial, add 2 mL of bacteriostatic water to achieve a concentration of 2,500 mcg/mL.
