SS-31 50mg

Overview

Pepnova SS-31 (Elamipretide) is a groundbreaking, cell-permeable mitochondrial-targeting peptide designed for advanced research into cellular energy, oxidative stress, and age-related dysfunction. This innovative tetrapeptide selectively concentrates in the inner mitochondrial membrane, making it a powerful tool for studying mitochondrial integrity, bioenergetics, and cytoprotection.

Key Features & Benefits

• Mitochondria-Specific Targeting: Engineered with a unique alternating aromatic-cationic structure that enables it to cross cell membranes and accumulate several hundred-fold within the inner mitochondrial membrane, allowing precise organelle-level research.
• Potent Antioxidant & Membrane Stabilizer: Binds to cardiolipin, a key phospholipid in the inner mitochondrial membrane, helping to research protection against oxidative damage and maintenance of cristae structure for efficient ATP production.
• Enhances Cellular Bioenergetics: Facilitates studies on improving mitochondrial efficiency, ATP synthesis, and reducing electron leak, which is central to research on aging, metabolic disorders, and neurodegeneration.
• High-Purity Research Grade: Synthesized to ≥ 99% purity (HPLC verified) with the D-arginine isomer configuration essential for its stability and bioactivity, ensuring reliable experimental outcomes.

Primary Research Applications

• Research into mitochondrial dysfunction in aging, neurodegeneration, and metabolic diseases.
• Study of oxidative stress reduction and protection against reactive oxygen species (ROS) within mitochondria.
• Investigation of cellular bioenergetics, ATP production, and metabolic efficiency.
• Models of ischemia-reperfusion injury, cardiovascular disease, and other conditions linked to mitochondrial failure.
