The Emerging Role of MOTS-c Peptide in Metabolic Health and Longevity
Mitochondrial-derived peptides (MDPs) have recently attracted significant interest for their multifaceted roles in cellular homeostasis, metabolism, and aging. Among these, MOTS-c (Mitochondrial Open Reading Frame of the 12S rRNA-c) stands out as a novel bioactive peptide encoded by the mitochondrial genome that orchestrates systemic metabolic regulation. Discovered less than a decade ago, MOTS-c has rapidly […]
