Surinamine is a small-molecule mitochondrial-targeted antioxidant designed to selectively scavenge superoxide anions (O₂•⁻) within mitochondria. It functions by accumulating in the mitochondrial matrix due to its lipophilic cationic structure, where it neutralizes reactive oxygen species (ROS) to protect cells from oxidative damage. Surinamine is primarily used in biomedical research to study mitochondrial redox biology and to explore therapeutic strategies for diseases associated with mitochondrial oxidative stress.
