Description
MOTS-c is a peptide hormone encoded in the mitochondrial genome. It regulates metabolic homeostasis and enhances physical performance. It is a mitochondria-derived peptide (MDP) that promotes biosynthesis of the endogenous AMP analog AICAR and consequently AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK). Induces cellular and systemic glucose uptake and improves insulin sensitivity. Shown to prevent diet-induced obesity (DIO) in mice. Potential anti-obesity and anti-aging compound.
