RESEARCH PEPTIDE
MOTS-C
MITOCHONDRIA-DERIVED PEPTIDE & METABOLIC RESEARCH COMPOUND
MOTS-C (MITOCHONDRIAL OPEN READING FRAME OF THE 12S RRNA-C) IS A MITOCHONDRIA-DERIVED PEPTIDE ENCODED WITHIN THE MITOCHONDRIAL GENOME. IT HAS BEEN STUDIED IN PRECLINICAL MODELS FOR ITS ROLE IN REGULATING AMPK PATHWAY ACTIVITY, GLUCOSE UPTAKE, AND SKELETAL MUSCLE METABOLISM. RESEARCHERS STUDYING THE EMERGING FIELD OF MITOCHONDRIAL PEPTIDE BIOLOGY AND METABOLIC SIGNALING HAVE USED MOTS-C AS A RESEARCH TOOL TO INVESTIGATE HOW MITOCHONDRIAL-ENCODED SIGNALS INFLUENCE SYSTEMIC ENERGY REGULATION.
PUBLISHED LITERATURE HAS EXPLORED MOTS-C IN THE CONTEXT OF INSULIN SENSITIVITY MODELS, EXERCISE RESPONSE BIOLOGY, AND AGE-RELATED METABOLIC DECLINE IN ANIMAL SUBJECTS. ITS ABILITY TO TRANSLOCATE TO THE NUCLEUS AND REGULATE STRESS RESPONSE GENE EXPRESSION HAS MADE IT A COMPOUND OF SIGNIFICANT INTEREST IN GEROSCIENCE AND METABOLIC RESEARCH. SCIENTISTS STUDYING THE MITONUCLEAR COMMUNICATION AXIS AND LONGEVITY BIOLOGY CONTINUE TO INVESTIGATE THIS PEPTIDE IN CONTROLLED RESEARCH ENVIRONMENTS.
