MOTS-c (10mg)
Mitochondrial-Derived Peptide for Metabolic and Cellular Stress Research
MOTS-c (10mg) is a synthetic mitochondrial-derived peptide (MDP) encoded by the 12S rRNA region of mitochondrial DNA. It plays a central role in metabolic regulation, cellular homeostasis, and stress response signaling. This peptide has garnered significant interest in research focused on mitochondrial activity, insulin sensitivity, and age-related metabolic dysfunctions.
Product Overview
Each vial contains 10mg of MOTS-c in lyophilized form, synthesized to >99% purity. It is ideal for experimental studies investigating AMPK pathway activation, oxidative stress modulation, and insulin-mimetic mechanisms. Its unique mitochondrial origin distinguishes it from traditional peptides and supports its investigation in metabolic disease models.
Key Research Attributes:
- Mitochondrial Regulation: MOTS-c is encoded within the mitochondrial genome and regulates cellular metabolism by activating AMPK and related energy pathways.
- Insulin Sensitivity Support: Studied for its role in enhancing glucose uptake and mimicking insulin-like effects in cellular models.
- Stress Response Signaling: Research suggests MOTS-c may protect cells under metabolic or oxidative stress, including hypoxia and aging environments.
- Exceptional Purity: Formulated for precise and repeatable results in controlled laboratory settings.
Applications in Scientific Research
- Mitochondrial function and peptide encoding studies
