Mitochondrial Research Peptides

This category features buffered NAD+, the central redox coenzyme of cellular energy metabolism. Other mitochondrial research compounds include MOTS-c and humanin, mitochondrial-derived peptides encoded inside mitochondrial DNA itself, and SS-31 (elamipretide), a synthetic tetrapeptide that targets cardiolipin in the inner mitochondrial membrane.

Each group is studied through a different mechanism. MOTS-c translocates to the nucleus under metabolic stress, humanin is studied for cytoprotective receptor signalling after its discovery in neuronal-survival screens, and SS-31 binds cardiolipin to support cristae architecture and electron-transport efficiency. The age-related decline of NAD+ is among the most replicated findings in geroscience, keeping the coenzyme central to study design across the category.

We stock buffered NAD+ in 1000mg vials. Every batch is independently tested and certified. For research use only.
