SS-31 Elamipretide Peptide Vial Lyophilisate For Lab Research

What is SS-31 Elamipretide?

SS-31 (Elamipretide) is a synthetic tetrapeptide that selectively targets the inner mitochondrial membrane, where it interacts with cardiolipin — a phospholipid essential for mitochondrial structure and function. By stabilizing cardiolipin, SS-31 helps preserve the integrity of the electron transport chain and reduces the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), making it a highly promising compound in mitochondrial research.

Key Research Areas

• Mitochondrial Protection — Stabilizes cardiolipin to preserve inner mitochondrial membrane integrity and electron transport chain efficiency
• Oxidative Stress Reduction — Significantly reduces ROS production, protecting cells from oxidative damage
• Cardiac Research — Investigated for its potential to protect cardiac tissue during ischemia-reperfusion injury
• Aging & Metabolic Research — Studied for its role in improving mitochondrial bioenergetics in aged tissues
• Neurodegenerative Models — Explored for neuroprotective effects in models of mitochondrial dysfunction
