Elamipretide · Mitochondria-Targeting Tetrapeptide
Szeto-Schiller mitochondria-targeting tetrapeptide. Studied in cardiolipin protection, mitochondrial bioenergetics, and cardiovascular research.
SS-31 (Elamipretide, MTP-131) is a cell-permeable tetrapeptide that selectively concentrates in the inner mitochondrial membrane where it interacts with cardiolipin. Research documents protection of electron transport chain function, reduction of reactive oxygen species, and restoration of mitochondrial morphology in aging and disease models.
