Description
ARA290 (Cibinetide)
ARA290 (also known as Cibinetide) is a synthetic, 11-amino acid peptide derived from the helix B domain of erythropoietin (EPO). Engineered as a highly selective tissue-protective agent, ARA290 acts exclusively as an agonist of the Innate Repair Receptor (IRR)—a heterocomplex consisting of the erythropoietin receptor and CD131. Unlike full-length erythropoietin, this structural fragment stimulates cytoprotective and anti-inflammatory cellular cascades without inducing erythropoiesis or changing hematocrit parameters.
