SS-31, also known as Elamipretide, is a synthetic tetrapeptide (D-Arg-Dmt-Lys-Phe-NH₂) designed to selectively target the inner mitochondrial membrane. It is currently under investigation in preclinical models for its role in mitochondrial bioenergetics, oxidative stress reduction, and cardiolipin stabilization. SS-31 binds to cardiolipin—a phospholipid unique to mitochondria—enhancing electron transport chain efficiency and protecting against mitochondrial permeability transition. Research applications include studies on neurodegeneration, ischemia-reperfusion injury, metabolic disorders, and age-related cellular decline. This compound is provided strictly for laboratory research purposes and is not approved for human or veterinary use.
