MOTS-C is a 16-amino-acid mitochondrial-derived peptide encoded within the mtDNA 12S rRNA region, first characterized by the Cohen laboratory at USC. Circulating levels decline with age. Reported research benefits: exercise-mimetic effects with improved endurance and physical performance; activation of AMPK driving glucose uptake and fatty-acid oxidation; improved insulin sensitivity and reduced insulin resistance in aged and diet-induced obese models; enhanced mitochondrial biogenesis and OXPHOS capacity; protection against age-related metabolic decline and weight gain; reduced inflammation; and support for cellular stress resistance through retrograde mitochondrial-to-nuclear signaling.
Amino Acid Sequence
16 amino acids (mtDNA-encoded)
