MOTS-C

Each vial contains 10 mg of MOTS-c (Mitochondrial ORF 12S rRNA-c), a 16-amino acid peptide encoded in the mitochondrial genome. This peptide is frequently used in research settings to analyze mitochondrial function, insulin sensitivity, and signaling pathways that mimic the effects of exercise.

Research Context (Literature Review) MOTS-C

Note: The following information is for educational purposes regarding the chemical properties of these peptides and does not constitute a medical claim.

This peptide is a unique signaling molecule that translocates to the nucleus to regulate the expression of genes associated with stress response. In vitro studies suggest that MOTS-c promotes the activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a key regulator of cellular energy homeostasis.

Through this pathway, It has been observed to increase glucose uptake and fatty acid oxidation in skeletal muscle tissue. Research models often explore its potential as an “exercise mimetic,” capable of inducing metabolic benefits similar to exercise in study subjects.
