SS-31 is a synthetic tetrapeptide (D-Arg-dimethylTyr-Lys-Phe-NH2) studied for its mitochondria-targeting properties. It is designed to penetrate the inner mitochondrial membrane and selectively bind to cardiolipin, a phospholipid critical to mitochondrial structure and function.

Key research areas include:

• Reducing oxidative stress and improving mitochondrial efficiency

• Enhancing ATP production and cellular energy output

• Studied in models of age-related diseases, neurodegeneration, muscle wasting, and cardiac dysfunction

• Potential to improve muscle endurance and cognitive resilience
