In a rat MI model, the resulting liposomal composite hydrogel improves cardiac function by scavenging excess ROS, improving mitochondrial dysfunction, and promoting angiogenesis.
1 context sentence(design, population, supporting numbers)
Notably, the liposomes contain both elamipretide (SS-31) and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), where SS-31 acts as an inhibitor of mitochondrial oxidative damage and S1P as a signaling molecule for activating angiogenesis.
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).
