Scientific context

The SS-31 connects to thecardiolipin, a phospholipid specific to the inner mitochondrial membrane that organizes the complexes of the respiratory chain. By protecting it from peroxidation, it preserves the structure ofmitochondrial cristae, the coupling of the electron transport chain and the production ofATP, while limiting the formation of reactive oxygen species.

It is studied in models ofischemia-reperfusion, muscle aging and mitochondrial dysfunction. A significant portion of the data remains preclinical.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the SS-31?
SS-31, also known as Elamipretide or MTP-131, is a tetrapeptide of the Szeto-Schiller family that concentrates in the mitochondria. It is studied in research for its binding to cardiolipin in the inner mitochondrial membrane.

Why does it target the mitochondria?
Its structure alternates between basic and aromatic amino acids: small and positively charged, it crosses membranes and accumulates on the inner mitochondrial membrane, rich in cardiolipin, independently of the membrane potential.

How does it differ from a conventional antioxidant?
SS-31 does not just neutralize free radicals: by binding to cardiolipin, it preserves the organization of the respiratory chain, which limits the production of ROS at the source.

In what form is it delivered?
In the form of a white lyophilized powder in a sealed 10 mg bottle, to be reconstituted with bacteriostatic water.

How is it stored?
The powder should be stored in the freezer, away from light; the reconstituted solution in the refrigerator.
