MOTS-c
Also known as: Mitochondrial Open Reading Frame of the 12S rRNA-c
MOTS-c is a 16-amino-acid mitochondrial-derived peptide encoded by the mitochondrial genome. It acts as a hormonal regulator of metabolic homeostasis, with powerful effects on insulin sensitivity, exercise performance, and metabolic health. MOTS-c levels decline with age, and supplementing has been linked to anti-aging, fat loss, and improved energy.

Half-Life
Short in plasma; biological effects last much longer
Common Dose
5–10 mg per week
Route
Subcutaneous injection
Frequency
5 days on / 2 off
Mechanism of Action
MOTS-c activates AMPK (AMP-activated protein kinase) — the body's master metabolic sensor — increasing glucose uptake, fatty acid oxidation, and mitochondrial biogenesis. It improves insulin sensitivity in muscle, reduces fat accumulation, and mimics many of the benefits of exercise at the cellular level. It also modulates nuclear gene expression for metabolic and stress-response genes.
Reported Benefits
- ✦Improved insulin sensitivity and glucose control
- ✦Enhanced fat loss, especially visceral fat
