SS-31 (elamipretide) is a small, aromatic peptide that easily penetrates cell and organelle membranes. It is thought to interfere with the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS or free radicals) and promote energy production in cells by stabilizing the enzyme cardiolipin within mitochondria. Cardiolipin is part of the inner mitochondrial membrane where it acts as a fundamental component of the electron transport chain, the machinery by which most energy need for cellular functioning is produced.
Dysfunction of cardiolipin has been implicated as contributing to the pathology of a number of diseases including Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, diabetes, heart failure, HIV, cancer, chronic fatigue syndrome, and more. Cardiolipin is thought to be a major component of mitochondrial myopathy, which isn’t a single disease but rather is a group of neuromuscular disorders caused by damage to mitochondria. Mitochondrial myopathy is characterized by everything from muscle weakness and exercise intolerance to heart failure, seizures, and dementia. SS-31 is the first peptide to ever undergo clinical trials as a potential treatment for mitochondrial myopathy.
