Results from this study2

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone2

In this study, Elamipretide (SS-31) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking Elamipretide (SS-31).

    In zebrafish, SS‑31 modified, minocycline-loaded liposomes increased hair cell survival against chronic gentamicin exposure.

    In plain wordsIn zebrafish, liposomes carrying minocycline and modified with SS‑31 protected hair cells from gentamicin.

    Summary
    The results revealed that SS-31 modified, minocycline-loaded liposomes significantly increased hair cell survival against chronic exposure to gentamicin in a zebrafish model.

    Summary · context
    Inspired by our previous research, we used a mitochondria-targeting tetrapeptide, SS-31, to modify the surface of liposomes.

    In this study, Elamipretide (SS-31) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking Elamipretide (SS-31).

    In zebrafish hair cells, the SS‑31 modified liposome formulation maintained mechanotransduction channel activity and did not alter gentamicin uptake.

    In plain wordsIn zebrafish, the SS‑31 liposomes kept hair cell channels working and did not change how much gentamicin entered the cells.

    Summary
    The designed formulation maintained the activity of mechanotransduction channels in the hair cells, and thus did not result in any alteration in gentamicin uptake.
