MOTS-C 10 mg

What is MOTS-c MOTS-c is a small peptide consisting of 16 amino acids, encoded by mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) within the cell. Mitochondria are the part of the cell responsible for energy production, which is why MOTS-c plays an important role in regulating the body’s energy metabolism. Amino Acid Sequence of MOTS-c MRWQEMGYIFYPRKLR ⚙️ Mechanism of Action MOTS-c functions as a regulator of cellular energy metabolism. 1. Activation of AMPK AMPK is an enzyme that acts as a key metabolic regulator in cells. When activated, it may help to: Improve exercise endurance Increase glucose utilization Enhance fat metabolism Reduce excess energy production 2. Suppression of mTOR Activity Reducing mTOR signaling may help cells shift into a mode that promotes: Cellular repair Activation of autophagy (the process of clearing damaged cellular components) These processes are associated with cellular maintenance and healthy aging. 3. Regulation of Gene Expression Under conditions of cellular stress, MOTS-c can move into the cell nucleus and help regulate genes involved in: Energy metabolism Stress response Antioxidant defense
