Mitochondrial-derived peptide (metabolic peptide)
COP 380.000
MOTS-c is a research peptide derived from mitochondria, studied for its role in metabolic regulation. It is being investigated in areas such as insulin sensitivity, physical performance, and mitochondrial function. It is supplied as a 10 mg vial of lyophilized powder, intended exclusively for scientific research.
MOTS-c is a 16-amino-acid research peptide encoded in mitochondrial DNA, hence its name: mitochondrial-derived peptide. It is a naturally occurring molecule in the body, and its role in metabolic regulation and cellular function is being studied.
It is used as a reference compound in experimental models of cellular metabolism and energy.
At KaiLab, peptides are supplied as a freeze-dried powder intended exclusively for scientific research. It is not approved for human or veterinary use.
These recommendations apply to all KaiLab freeze-dried peptides.
Freeze-dried powder (not reconstituted):
– Store at −20 °C for long-term storage.
– Protect from light and keep in a dry environment.
– Under these conditions it maintains its stability for extended periods.
Reconstituted (in solution):
– Reconstitute routinely with bacteriostatic water, under laboratory conditions.
– Store refrigerated (2°C to 8°C).
– Avoid repeated freezing and thawing cycles.
– Handle with aseptic technique and appropriate laboratory equipment.
These instructions pertain solely to the handling of research materials.
MOTS-c is primarily studied in areas related to metabolism and mitochondrial function:
– Metabolic regulation and glucose homeostasis
– Insulin sensitivity
– Physical performance and exercise
– Mitochondrial function and cellular energy
