Description
MOTS-c is a peptide consisting of 16 amino acids encoded by mitochondrial DNA, specifically in the 12S rRNA gene. It plays a crucial role in the regulation of energy metabolism and insulin sensitivity. Under stressful conditions or during physical exercise, MOTS-c is transported to the cell nucleus, where it affects the expression of genes involved in adapting to stress and maintaining energy balance.
Important functions of MOTS-c:
+Regulation of energy metabolism: MOTS-c activates the AMPK pathway, leading to enhanced glucose uptake and fatty acid oxidation, thus helping to maintain energy balance.
+Improving insulin sensitivity: By increasing insulin sensitivity, MOTS-c may contribute to better regulation of blood sugar levels and possibly help in the prevention or treatment of insulin resistance.
+Anti-aging effects: Research suggests that MOTS-c may play a role in slowing aging processes and reducing age-related diseases by promoting healthy metabolism and protecting against cellular stress.
