Description
MOTS-c (10mg) – Research Peptide
Look, here’s the deal. You’re looking at MOTS-c, a 16-amino acid mitochondrial-derived peptide. Think of it as a signal your own body’s power plants can send. The research, which we’ll lay out straight, suggests it’s involved in fundamental metabolic regulation. This isn’t magic; it’s a precise research compound for understanding cellular communication.
We stock this as a pure, lyophilized powder. Each vial contains 10mg. It ships with 2ml of Bacteriostatic Water. Store it in a freezer. Handle it with the respect and caution any serious research chemical demands.
Key Research Points on MOTS-c:
- Metabolic Research: Published murine studies indicate MOTS-c may activate the AMPK pathway, a central regulator of cellular energy. This is linked in research to influences on glucose metabolism and fatty acid oxidation.
- Muscle & Physical Performance Models: In lab models, MOTS-c appears to target skeletal muscle tissue. Research notes potential improvements in glucose uptake in muscle cells, independent of insulin pathways. Some studies point to enhanced endurance and motor coordination in aged models.
- Bone Density Studies: In vitro research suggests MOTS-c may promote the synthesis of type I collagen in osteoblasts via the TGF-β/Smad pathway. This is a key area of interest for bone integrity studies.
- Cellular & Systemic Function: As a mitochondrial signal, research positions MOTS-c as a potential modulator of metabolic homeostasis, with studies examining its role in age-related metabolic decline and cellular stress response.
