SS-31 (Elamipretide) is a mitochondria-targeted tetrapeptide that selectively concentrates in the inner mitochondrial membrane. This cell-permeable peptide has been the focus of extensive research examining its ability to bind cardiolipin and optimize mitochondrial electron transport chain function. Published studies have investigated its effects on reactive oxygen species reduction, mitochondrial bioenergetics, and cellular ATP production in various research models. SS-31 is one of the most studied mitochondria-targeting peptides in current biomedical research.
