Comparison
While SS-31 improves mitochondrial bioenergetics, reduces oxidative stress, and shows protective effects in models of ischemia-reperfusion, neurodegeneration, and other mitochondrial disorders4637137, Tesamorelin is FDA-approved to reduce excess visceral adipose tissue in HIV-associated lipodystrophy and is studied for broader body-composition, NAFLD, and cognitive effects via GH/IGF-1 axis modulation1893.
While SS-31 works as a mitochondria-targeted tetrapeptide, d-Arg-dimethylTyr-Lys-Phe-NH2, that selectively binds cardiolipin in the inner mitochondrial membrane, stabilizing cristae structure, improving electron transport, and reducing ROS production4637137143, Tesamorelin is a full-length 44-amino-acid GHRH analog with an N-terminal trans-3-hexenoic acid modification that binds GHRHR, activating cAMP/PKA signaling to increase endogenous GH and IGF-1, with improved stability versus native GHRH182893102.
SS-31 is 4 amino acids long, whereas Tesamorelin is longer as it has a length of 44 amino acids. SS-31 is made up of a sequence of Arginine, dimethylTyr, Lysine, Phenylalanine. Tesamorelin is made up of a sequence of Tyrosine, Alanine, Aspartic acid, Alanine, Isoleucine, Phenylalanine, Threonine, Asparagine, Serine, Tyrosine, Arginine, Lysine, Valine, Leucine, Glycine, Glutamine, Leucine, Serine, Alanine, Arginine, Lysine, Leucine, Leucine, Glutamine, Aspartic acid, Isoleucine, Methionine, Serine, Arginine, Glutamine, Glutamine, Glycine, Glutamic acid, Serine, Asparagine, Glutamine, Glutamic acid, Arginine, Glycine, Alanine, Arginine, Alanine, Arginine, Leucine.
