SS-31 is studied in research on cellular energy metabolism and longevity. SS-31 accumulates strongly and selectively at the inner mitochondrial membrane, where it binds cardiolipin, a phospholipid essential for cristae structure. This stabilizes cristae architecture, improves ATP production, and reduces oxidative stress.
The TAZPOWER trial (Barth syndrome) showed significant improvements in skeletal muscle strength and cardiac stroke volume over 48 weeks — the basis for the later FDA approval. Also under investigation in heart failure and age-related muscle decline research.

Sequence and regulatory status data are based on publicly available sources and refer to the compound in general, not to a specific product.
Research on longevity and energy metabolism is primarily supported by preclinical data.
