Description

MOTS‐C is a peptide of 16 amino acids expressed by a mitochondrial gene. Research  provides evidence that mitochondria play a key role in signaling and in energy production.

MOTS-C regulates metabolic functions throughout the body, including turning glucose into usable energy by activating the AMPK pathway and at the same time without increasing insulin. It is fair to call MOTS‐c an exercise‐mimetic, meaning it imitates exercise on the body. AMPK (AMP‐activated protein kinase), was identified in 1999 as the master switch for metabolism and the central regulator of both glucose and lipid (fat) metabolism.
