Overview
MOTS-C is a short peptide encoded by mitochondrial DNA and commonly explored in studies of cellular energy balance, metabolic signaling, and stress-response pathways. We keep things straightforward: clean labeling, clarity-first specs, and access to batch documentation so you can verify exactly what you’re working with.
Key research highlights (in plain terms)
-
Energy & AMPK signaling — used to examine activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a central “fuel gauge” that helps cells manage energy use and nutrient sensing.
-
Glucose handling & insulin pathways — applied in models that track glucose uptake, insulin sensitivity, and downstream markers that link signaling to measurable metabolic outcomes.
-
Fat utilization & mitochondrial cues — explored in systems monitoring fatty-acid oxidation, mitochondrial stress signals, and adaptive gene programs tied to metabolism.
-
Exercise-mimetic profiles — suitable for experiments comparing time-course and dose–response patterns to exercise-like adaptations in controlled settings.
-
Gene expression panels — used alongside transcriptional readouts to connect pathway activation with metabolic and stress-response signatures.
