MOTS-c is a mitochondrial-derived peptide made up of 16 amino acids and encoded by the mitochondrial genome. It is studied for its role in mitochondrial signaling, cellular-energy regulation, skeletal-muscle metabolism, glucose metabolism, AMPK-related pathways, stress-response biology, and age-related metabolic function.
In research settings, MOTS-c has been investigated in relation to exercise adaptation, skeletal-muscle metabolism, metabolic flexibility, insulin-sensitivity pathways, obesity-related models, glucose regulation, mitochondrial stress response, and healthy-aging biology.
