Research background
MOTS-c (Mitochondrial ORF of the Twelve S rRNA-c) is one of a small family of peptides encoded within the mitochondrial genome. Since its characterization by the Cohen group, published research has examined its role as a mitochondrial-derived signaling peptide influencing insulin sensitivity, AMPK activation, and metabolic homeostasis in preclinical models.
Studies have reported MOTS-c effects on glucose uptake in skeletal muscle, age-associated metabolic decline, and exercise-related metabolic adaptation.
The peptide is supplied as a research tool for investigation of mitochondrial signaling and the emerging field of mitochondrial-derived peptide biology.
Mechanism: Literature describes MOTS-c as an AMPK-activating peptide that traffics from mitochondria to the nucleus under metabolic stress to modulate nuclear gene expression programs.
