MOTS-c 10MG

Product overview

MOTS-c 10MG is a synthetic mitochondrial-derived peptide research material. It is supplied as white to off-white lyophilised powder in a 10mg catalogue presentation (SKU MS10).

MOTS-c is a peptide linked to mitochondrial biology. Researchers examine how mitochondria communicate with the rest of the cell and how this relates to stress and metabolic signalling.

What researchers study

• Signals sent from mitochondria to the cell nucleus
• AMPK-related pathways
• Cellular stress and metabolic balance
• Biomarkers linked to exercise and ageing models

Evidence and limitations

Most evidence concerns mechanisms in cells and animals, with early human research. It does not establish how this independently supplied material performs.

Storage and laboratory handling

Before preparing a solution: Keep the vial sealed, dry and protected from light. Follow the product label, safety data and batch documentation for the required storage temperature.

After preparing a solution: No product-specific shelf life or universal compatibility has been established. The laboratory must validate the solvent, concentration, container, temperature and hold time for its method.

Handle only in an appropriately equipped laboratory using suitable personal protective equipment and local disposal procedures.
