Elamipretide (SS-31) is a small peptide that can reach inside the mitochondria and affect mitochondrial function maintenance. Elamipretide belongs to a family of cell-penetrating peptides that target and accumulate at the inner mitochondrial membrane. Inside the mitochondria, elamipretide binds to cardiolipin, an essential component of the inner mitochondrial membrane, and restores the mitochondria.

Given the effects of elamipretide on mitochondrial function and maintenance, treatment with elamipretide is under investigation to determine its benefits on human health. Recently, scientists have discovered at least four excellent benefits that can potentially make elamipretide a viable treatment option for a wide variety of conditions.

In diabetes research, SS-31 can improve mitochondrial dysfunction related to diabetes and has potential value in the treatment of diabetes and its complications. For sepsis, SS-31 can reduce vascular permeability in septic rats. The protective effect is related to the inhibition of oxidative stress, providing a new strategy for clinical treatment.

SS-31 Benefits:

• Elamipretide Can Treat Mitochondrial Dysfunction
• Elamipretide Can Prevent Cardiovascular Disease Risk
• Reduces internal inflammation
• Elamipretide Can Improve Cognitive Impairment
• Elamipretide Can Enhance Physical Endurance
