The MOTS-c peptide, encoded by the mitochondrial 12S rRNA gene, has a unique genetic code that allows it to influence various processes such as stress responses, cellular metabolism, sports ability, and inflammation through retrograde signaling that affects nuclear gene expression.
MOTS-c is believed to improve mitochondrial function by activating the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) pathway. AMPK is an enzyme that plays a key role in regulating energy metabolism in the body. When activated, AMPK helps to increase glucose uptake and fatty acid oxidation, which can lead to improved energy production and metabolic function.
