What is MOTS-c?
MOTS-c is a 16-amino acid peptide encoded by mitochondrial 12S rRNA. Its mechanism of action: it modulates the AMPK signalling pathway in cell models and is used as a tool to study mitochondrial-nuclear communication. In the scientific literature, MOTS-c is classified under Mitochondria and Ageing Research and serves as a characterised reference substance for controlled laboratory experiments.
Research Applications of MOTS-c
In the field of Mitochondria and Ageing Research, MOTS-c is studied in the following contexts: studies on insulin sensitivity, oxidative metabolism and cellular ageing. Because each batch is delivered with verified purity and a Certificate of Analysis on request, it is well-suited for experimental series that require reproducible starting conditions. Many laboratories also use MOTS-c in comparative studies with structurally related peptides to differentiate mechanisms of action.
Who is MOTS-c For?
MOTS-c is intended for research institutions, university laboratories and qualified users in the field of mitochondria and ageing research who require a characterised, high-purity reference compound for controlled in-vitro or pre-clinical experimental setups. This product is not intended or approved for human use.
