SS-31 50mg

SS-31, also known as Elamipretide or MTP-131, is a synthetic, mitochondria-targeting tetrapeptide investigated for its interactions with the inner mitochondrial membrane. The compound is of particular interest in mitochondrial research because of its affinity for cardiolipin, a phospholipid involved in maintaining mitochondrial membrane structure and supporting mitochondrial protein complexes. SS-31 is studied in experimental models examining mitochondrial function, cellular energy regulation, oxidative stress responses, and age-associated cellular processes. Research Applications Mitochondrial Function Research SS-31 is investigated for its interactions with mitochondrial membranes and the molecular processes involved in maintaining mitochondrial function. Cardiolipin Interaction Studies Laboratory research examines the peptides affinity for cardiolipin and its potential influence on mitochondrial membrane organization and stability. Cellular Energy Metabolism Experimental investigations explore the relationship between SS-31 and mitochondrial energy-producing pathways, including processes associated with adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production. Oxidative Stress Research SS-31 is studied in laboratory models examining mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) and cellular responses to oxidative stress. Cellular Aging Research Preclinical investigations explore mitochondrial-associated pathways relevant to age-related changes in cellular function. Mitochondrial Membrane Research The peptide is used in experimental studies examining membrane-associated protein interactions and mitochondrial structural organization. These research applications describe areas of scientific investigation and do not establish therapeutic effectiveness.
