SS-31 is a kind of mitochondrion-targeted peptide. Recent studies indicated significant neuroprotective effects of SS-31. In this study, we investigated that SS-31 protected the murine cultured microglial cells (BV-2) against lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation and oxidative stress through stabilizing mitochondrial morphology. The morphological study showed that SS-31 preserved LPS-induced mitochondrial ultrastructure by reducing the fission protein 1 (Fis1) expression. Flow cytometry and Western blot verified that SS-31 defended the BV-2 cells against LPS-stimulated inflammation and oxidative stress via suppressing Fis1. To sum up, our study represents that SS-31 preserves BV-2 cells from LPS-sti... More
