Research Overview
MOTS-c is a 16-amino-acid mitochondria-derived peptide encoded by the mitochondrial genome. In experimental models it is used to probe metabolic regulation, AMPK-related signaling, mitochondrial function and cellular stress responses.
Primary Research Areas
-
Metabolic regulation & AMPK: models examining glucose uptake, insulin sensitivity and AMPK-dependent pathways.
-
Mitochondrial function & bioenergetics: studies focused on mitochondrial health, biogenesis and cellular energy homeostasis.
-
Cellular stress & oxidative balance: experiments on oxidative stress, cytoprotection and stress-response signaling.
-
Exercise-mimetic & aging research: preclinical work exploring exercise-like adaptations and age-related metabolic decline.
