Overview
MOTS-C (Mitochondrial ORF of 12S rRNA Type C) is a mitochondrial-derived peptide encoded by mitochondrial DNA. Discovered in 2015 by Dr. Changhan Lee at USC Leonard Davis School of Gerontology.
Published Research
Published literature has examined MOTS-C across multiple research contexts:
- AMPK pathway activation and metabolic sensor modulation
- Glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity research in preclinical models
- Exercise physiology - circulating MOTS-C levels increase with physical activity
- Mitochondrial-nuclear communication (retrograde signaling) research

• Metabolic biology: MOTS-c has been studied for its effects on glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity in murine models of diet-induced obesity (Lee et al., 2015).
• AMPK pathway: Research has examined MOTS-c's interaction with AMP-activated protein kinase signaling in metabolic regulation.
• Exercise biology: Studies have investigated MOTS-c as an exercise-mimetic peptide, examining skeletal muscle metabolism effects.
• Aging research: Investigations into MOTS-c levels across age groups and its potential role in age-related metabolic changes.
