SS-31 10MG

Description

DESCRIPTION

SS-31 (Elamipretide) is a synthetic tetrapeptide (D-Arg-2′6′-dimethylTyr-Lys-Phe-NH2) designed to localize to mitochondria. It is studied in research models for binding to cardiolipin in the inner mitochondrial membrane and associated mitochondrial signaling.

RESEARCH AREAS

• Cardiolipin binding — characterized in published research for selective association with the inner mitochondrial membrane.
• Mitochondrial signaling — studied in cell-based assays for effects on ATP production and reactive oxygen species generation.
• Cardiomyocyte research — investigated in preclinical models of cardiomyocyte function.
• Skeletal muscle models — explored in rodent studies of muscle cell metabolism.

WHAT RESEARCHERS LOOK AT

• Mechanism: binding to cardiolipin in the inner mitochondrial membrane and preservation of cristae structure.
• Mitochondrial efficiency markers and oxidative stress measurements.
• Applications in cardiomyocyte and skeletal muscle research models.
• Use in mitochondrial pathway research.
