For research use only. Not for human or veterinary use.

MOTS-c (Mitochondrial Open Reading Frame of the 12S rRNA-c) is a 16-amino acid peptide encoded within the mitochondrial genome. It functions as an endogenous mitochondrial-derived peptide (MDP) that activates AMPK signaling, promotes nuclear translocation of AMPK, and regulates skeletal muscle glucose metabolism. Research interest centers on its role in metabolic homeostasis, insulin sensitization, cellular aging, and exercise mimetics at the cellular level.
