Product Description
Mitochondrial-Derived Peptide for Metabolic Research
MOTS-c 10mg is a research-grade vial of a 16-amino acid peptide encoded by mitochondrial DNA. As a mitokine — a signalling molecule secreted by mitochondria — MOTS-c has attracted significant scientific interest for its role as a systemic metabolic regulator, with research exploring its effects on cellular energy, insulin sensitivity, and longevity.

About MOTS-c
MOTS-c is one of a class of mitochondrial-derived peptides (MDPs) that act as intercellular signals regulating metabolic homeostasis. Research has shown it can translocate to the nucleus in response to metabolic stress, where it regulates gene expression related to glucose and lipid metabolism. Its ability to mimic certain effects of exercise at a cellular level makes it a compelling subject for metabolic and longevity research.
