MOTS-C 10 MG

British Dragon MOTS-c 10 mg – Mitochondrial-Derived Peptide

British Dragon MOTS-c 10 mg is a mitochondrial-derived peptide encoded by the mitochondrial genome, distinct from nuclear-encoded peptides. Each 2 mL vial contains 10 mg of lyophilized MOTS-c, ready for reconstitution for research applications involving metabolic regulation, insulin sensitivity, and cellular energy homeostasis.

MOTS-c has gained significant attention in metabolic research due to its ability to influence AMPK activation and improve insulin sensitivity in animal models. Unlike traditional growth hormone peptides or GHRPs, MOTS-c operates through mitochondrial signaling pathways. For researchers studying metabolic function, this peptide represents a unique tool.

What Makes British Dragon MOTS-c Unique?

MOTS-c is one of the few known peptides encoded by mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) rather than nuclear DNA. It translocates to the nucleus under metabolic stress conditions, influencing gene expression related to metabolism and inflammation. This distinct origin and mechanism sets it apart from synthetic peptides or hormone analogs.

For performance-focused research, MOTS-c is often studied in the context of metabolic adaptation and energy expenditure. The 10 mg dosage provides sufficient material for extended protocols investigating chronic metabolic interventions. Researchers may also combine MOTS-c with other metabolic research tools to evaluate comprehensive pathway interactions.

Dosage & Usage Guidelines for Research

Reconstitution Protocol

• ✔ Add 2-5 mL bacteriostatic water to the 10 mg vial
• ✔ Swirl gently; do not shake
• ✔ Store reconstituted peptide at 2-8°C and use within 30 days

The standard reconstitution yields a concentration of approximately 2-5 mg/mL depending on the volume used. For precise dosing, researchers should calculate based on desired mg per injection volume.

Typical Research Parameters

In animal models, MOTS-c is often administered at dosages ranging from 5-10 mg per week, typically divided into 2-3 injections. Subcutaneous injection is the standard route for systemic metabolic research. Due to its short half-life, frequent administration may be required for sustained pathway activation studies.

• ✔ Subcutaneous injection: 0.5-1 mg per injection, 5-10 mg total weekly
• ✔ Research models: Dosing typically scaled by body weight
• ✔ Study duration: 2-6 weeks for metabolic adaptation studies

Combination Research

MOTS-c is often studied in isolation due to its unique mitochondrial signaling pathway. However, some protocols combine it with other metabolic modulators to evaluate synergistic effects on energy homeostasis. For comprehensive metabolic research, explore our range of research peptides.

What to Avoid During Research

• ❌ Do not use if the lyophilized cake appears discolored or collapsed
• ❌ Avoid exposure to high heat or direct light
• ❌ Do not mix with strong solvents or extreme pH solutions
• ❌ Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles after reconstitution

Storage Guidelines for Lyophilized Peptides

Store British Dragon MOTS-c 10 mg lyophilized powder in a cool, dry place away from direct light and moisture. Prior to reconstitution, the unopened vial should be kept at controlled room temperature (15-25°C) or refrigerated (2-8°C) for long-term storage. Do not freeze the lyophilized powder, as this may damage the peptide structure.

After reconstitution with bacteriostatic water, the solution must be stored at 2-8°C (refrigerator) and used within 30 days to maintain peptide integrity. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Do not use if the solution appears cloudy or contains particulates, or if the vial seal is compromised.

Keep out of reach of children and unauthorized personnel. Follow standard laboratory safety protocols when handling peptides.

Proper storage conditions help maintain research-grade purity and consistent performance across the product's shelf life.
