About this product

MOTS-C Canada — Mitochondrial-Derived Peptide for Research MOTS-c is a 16-amino acid peptide encoded not in the nuclear genome but in the mitochondrial genome — specifically within the 12S ribosomal RNA gene. That origin makes it genuinely unusual. It belongs to the mitochondrial-derived peptide (MDP) class, and it's the first of these shown to produce systemic metabolic effects through hormonal-type signalling. The mechanism centres on AMPK activation. MOTS-c translocates from mitochondria to the nucleus under metabolic stress and regulates pathways related to glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity. It functions as a signal from mitochondria communicating metabolic status to the rest of the cell — and potentially to other tissues via circulation. For researchers studying mitochondrial-nuclear crosstalk, that biology is genuinely novel territory. Exercise biology is one of the more active research directions. MOTS-c levels increase in plasma during exercise, and exogenous administration mimics some exercise-induced metabolic adaptations in sedentary rodents — improving insulin sensitivity, reducing adiposity, and increasing mitochondrial biogenesis markers. The "exercise mim...

Frequently asked
questions

What is MOTS-C used for?

MOTS-C is a mitochondrial-derived peptide studied for metabolic and longevity research. Mitochondrial peptide that activates AMPK and improves glucose metabolism. Published research has examined its role in metabolic health, exercise mimetic, insulin sensitivity.

Can I buy MOTS-C in Canada?

Yes. Kirei Clinic ships MOTS-C to all Canadian provinces — Ontario, British Columbia, Alberta, Quebec, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, and all territories. It's available strictly for non-clinical laboratory research purposes.

What purity is Kirei Clinic's MOTS-C?

Every batch is independently tested to 99%+ purity by third-party HPLC. Mass spectrometry confirms peptide identity. A Certificate of Analysis documenting purity, molecular weight, and batch data is included with every order.

How should I store MOTS-C?

Store lyophilized MOTS-C at -20°C in the original sealed vial. After reconstitution with bacteriostatic water, refrigerate at 2-8°C and use within 4 weeks. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles — aliquot if multiple uses are planned.

How do I reconstitute MOTS-C?

Draw bacteriostatic water into a syringe and inject slowly against the vial wall — not directly onto the powder. Swirl gently to dissolve; never shake. Common volumes are 1 mL, 2 mL, or 2.5 mL depending on the concentration needed. Let sit for a minute if not fully dissolved.

Is MOTS-C legal in Canada?

MOTS-C is legal to purchase in Canada for non-clinical laboratory research. It is not approved by Health Canada for therapeutic use and is not intended for human consumption. Kirei Clinic sells it strictly for research applications.

How does MOTS-C differ from humanin?

Both MOTS-C and humanin are used in metabolic and longevity research research but work through different mechanisms. MOTS-C is a mitochondrial-derived peptide. Researchers often study them in parallel to compare mechanism-specific effects.

What documentation comes with MOTS-C?

Every order includes a Certificate of Analysis (COA) with: HPLC purity results (99%+), mass spectrometry data, batch number, manufacturing date, and expiry date. This provides full traceability for research records.
