SS-31
Also known as: Elamipretide, Bendavia, MTP-131
A mitochondria-targeted tetrapeptide that concentrates 1000x in the inner mitochondrial membrane. Restores bioenergetics and reduces oxidative damage.
Mechanism of Action
Selectively binds cardiolipin on the inner mitochondrial membrane, stabilizing electron transport chain complexes, reducing ROS production, and optimizing ATP synthesis.
