What It Is

A small, cell-permeable peptide that selectively targets the inner mitochondrial membrane. SS-31 binds to cardiolipin, a lipid molecule critical for maintaining the structure and function of the electron transport chain where ATP is produced.

How It Works

1
SS-31 crosses cell membranes and enters mitochondria
→
2
Binds to cardiolipin on the inner membrane
→
3
Stabilizes the electron transport chain
→
4
Reduces oxidative stress and improves ATP output

What Researchers Study It For

Mitochondrial membrane integrity
Reactive oxygen species reduction
Age-related cardiac and renal function
Electron transport chain efficiency

Common Research Protocols

SS-31 is typically reconstituted from lyophilized powder and administered via subcutaneous injection. Its small size and positive charge allow it to concentrate selectively in mitochondria.

Community Interest Areas

SS-31 has drawn research interest for its highly targeted mechanism — it acts directly at the site where mitochondrial energy production occurs. Investigators are particularly interested in its ability to restore function in aged mitochondria rather than simply providing antioxidant support.
