SS-31

Elamipretide (D-Arg-Dmt-Lys-Phe-NH2)

SS-31 (Elamipretide) is a mitochondria-targeting tetrapeptide that binds to cardiolipin in the inner mitochondrial membrane to optimize mitochondrial structure and function. Originally developed for mitochondrial diseases and heart failure, SS-31 enhances cellular energy production and reduces oxidative stress across multiple organ systems. It has shown promise in clinical trials for heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, Barth syndrome, and mitochondrial myopathies.
