MOTS-c | Mitochondrial-Derived Peptide | Research Grade

The mitochondrial genome encodes MOTS-c, a mitochondrial-derived peptide. PerformanceLabsUK supplies it strictly as a research reference material for in vitro laboratory investigation. Researchers must not use MOTS-c for human or veterinary purposes.

Areas of Research Interest

• Specifically, researchers study it for its potential role in AMPK pathway activation and cellular energy regulation.
• For example, scientists examine it in metabolic research models for its influence on insulin sensitivity and glucose uptake in skeletal muscle.
• In addition, longevity biology shows significant interest in this peptide, given the link between mitochondrial decline and biological ageing.
• Additionally, exercise physiology research explores its exercise-mimetic metabolic adaptations in preclinical models.
• In particular, investigators study its cross-compartmental nuclear gene expression signalling, a mechanism unique to mitochondrial-origin peptides.

Primary Research Areas: Metabolic Health | Insulin Sensitivity | Longevity | Exercise Physiology | Mitochondrial Biology

PerformanceLabsUK independently tests every MOTS-c batch through a third-party laboratory. As a result, we publish a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis in our COA Library. Researchers investigating related longevity and mitochondrial compounds may also wish to review our SS-31 research peptide. For structural and chemical reference data, see the independent PubChem listing.
