MOTS-C
Price range: $72.00 through $314.00
MOTS-c is a mitochondrial-derived polypeptide (MDP) whose functions include regulating metabolism (enhancing insulin sensitivity and promoting glucose uptake), antioxidation, and anti-inflammation (activating the AMPK pathway and inhibiting the NF-κB inflammatory pathway). Studies have shown that MOTS-c has potential therapeutic value for treating diseases related to aging and metabolic disorders, such as type 2 diabetes, obesity, Alzheimer’s disease, and autoimmune diseases.

Main Functions
Regulates Metabolism:
Enhances Insulin Sensitivity: Activates the AMPK/PGC-1α pathway, improving glucose and lipid metabolism.
Promotes Glucose Uptake: Stimulates cellular glucose uptake, but instead of glycolysis, directs it to the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) for anabolism.
Antioxidant and Anti-inflammatory Effects:
Antioxidant: Activates the Nrf2/Keap1 antioxidant pathway, combating oxidative stress.
Anti-inflammatory: Inhibits the NF-κB inflammatory pathway and may exert anti-inflammatory effects by activating the AMPK pathway.
Other Effects:
Penetrating the Blood-Brain Barrier: Can function in the brain, regulating cellular metabolism.
Neuroprotective Effects: Has potential protective effects against traumatic brain injury.
