MOTS-c
Mitochondrial-Derived Peptide
Lyophilized powder — reconstitution with bacteriostatic water or a suitable solvent is required prior to use. BAC Water is available separately in our Solvents category.
MOTS-c is a mitochondrial-derived peptide (MDP) encoded within the mitochondrial 12S rRNA gene1. It is studied for its roles in metabolic regulation1, insulin sensitivity1, exercise performance3, and longevity. Research has demonstrated its ability to activate AMPK signalling1, influence lipid and glucose metabolism1, and enhance mitochondrial function3.
Mechanism of Action
Activates AMPK signalling to enhance glucose uptake, inhibits the folate cycle-AICAR pathway, translocates to the nucleus to regulate stress-response gene expression.
