SS-31 (Elamipretide) Mitochondria-Targeted Tetrapeptide Product Information

This is a specialized research product of SS-31 (also known as Elamipretide), a synthetic tetrapeptide, strictly intended For In Vitro Research Use Only — Not for Human or Veterinary Use.

Description & Application 🔬

  • Description: SS-31 is a synthetic tetrapeptide specifically designed to selectively target the inner mitochondrial membrane. It achieves this by binding to cardiolipin, a key phospholipid in the inner membrane.

  • Mechanism of Action: It is studied for its ability to stabilize mitochondrial structure and function when the cells are under oxidative stress.

  • Research Focus: SS-31 is widely researched for its potential to:

    • Improve mitochondrial bioenergetics.

    • Reduce reactive oxygen species (ROS).

    • Support cellular resilience in models of degenerative and metabolic dysfunction.

  • Application Context: The compound is actively studied in vitro for its effects on:

    • Mitochondrial membrane stabilization and bioenergetics.

    • Reduction of mitochondrial-derived ROS.

    • Cardiolipin interaction and protection.

    • Cellular energy production under stress or degeneration.
