Product Overview
SS-31 (Elamipretide / Bendavia) is a mitochondria-targeting synthetic tetrapeptide designed for advanced research into mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and cellular energy restoration. By selectively accumulating in the inner mitochondrial membrane and stabilizing cardiolipin, SS-31 protects against ROS-induced damage and improves mitochondrial bioenergetics. Supplied as a high-purity lyophilized powder, this research-grade peptide is a key tool for studying age-related decline, neurodegeneration, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic disorders in preclinical models.
Key Features
- Mitochondria-Targeted Protection: SS-31 concentrates in mitochondria, scavenges ROS, and stabilizes cardiolipin to restore electron transport chain efficiency in preclinical models.
- High Purity: Each batch is rigorously tested for purity and sterility, ensuring reliable research outcomes.
- Lyophilized Powder: Provided in a sealed, sterile vial for easy reconstitution and storage.
- Research-Grade: Formulated specifically for in-vitro and pre-clinical studies. It is not intended for diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of any disease.
Research Applications
SS-31 is a novel peptide under investigation for its potential in:
- Mitochondrial Dysfunction Studies: Explores restoration of ATP production and reduction of oxidative damage in isolated mitochondria and cellular models.
- Neurodegenerative Disease Research: Investigates neuroprotection in models of Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, ALS, and ischemic brain injury.
- Cardiovascular & Heart Failure Models: Examines improvement in cardiac energetics, contractility, and protection against ischemia-reperfusion injury.
- Aging & Sarcopenia Research: Studies mitigation of age-related mitochondrial decline, muscle weakness, and exercise intolerance in preclinical settings.
