What is MOTS-C?
MOTS-c is a 16-amino-acid mitochondrial-derived peptide that functions as an exercise-mimicking metabolic regulator - activating AMPK, improving insulin sensitivity, and increasing exercise capacity in preclinical aging models.
MOTS-c activates AMPK by perturbing the folate-methionine cycle, raising intracellular AICAR, and turning on metabolic signals that normally appear only during exercise or stress.

Frequently asked questions
Where can I buy MOTS-C?
MOTS-C is available directly from New-U Research Compounds at https://new-u.io/peptide/mots-c. Every batch is independently third-party tested by Janoshik Analytics and Freedom Diagnostics to >99% HPLC purity, supplied as lyophilised research-grade material, and shipped direct from source worldwide (approximately 6–14 business days).
How much does MOTS-C cost?
MOTS-C starts at $120 for a 10-vial research pack (10mg per vial) at New-U Research Compounds, with 2 pack sizes available. Orders over $300 ship free.
Is New-U MOTS-C third-party tested?
Yes. Every MOTS-C batch is verified by independent laboratories (Janoshik Analytics and Freedom Diagnostics) for identity and purity, with a batch-linked Certificate of Analysis confirming >99% purity by HPLC area normalisation.
How fast does MOTS-C ship, and do you ship internationally?
MOTS-C ships direct from source, discreetly worldwide with cold-chain handling where required. Delivery is approximately 6–14 business days worldwide. Shipping is free on orders over $300. Card and cryptocurrency payments are accepted.
Is it legal to buy MOTS-C?
In the United States, MOTS-C is sold strictly for laboratory and research purposes only. It is not approved by the FDA for human consumption and is not sold for that purpose. Regulatory status varies by jurisdiction — buyers are responsible for compliance in their own region.
What is MOTS-C used for in research?
MOTS-c mitochondrial-derived peptide activates AMPK via folate-AICAR pathway to regulate glucose metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and lipid oxidation. New-U supplies MOTS-C as research-grade reference material for laboratory and in-vitro or animal-model investigation only. Mechanism, pharmacokinetics and study context are summarised on the MOTS-C research profile. Not for human use.
What is the typical MOTS-C research dosage?
Reconstitution volumes and dosing reported in the literature for MOTS-C are described in research-model terms only. New-U Research Compounds supplies MOTS-C strictly for laboratory research and does not provide human-use dosing guidance. Reconstitution math and study-reported ranges are covered on the full research profile.
Can I buy MOTS-C online and how fast does it ship?
Yes. MOTS-C can be ordered online directly from New-U Research Compounds with card or cryptocurrency, shipped direct from source discreetly worldwide. Delivery is approximately 6–14 business days worldwide. Free shipping applies to orders over $300.
Can I buy MOTS-C in bulk?
MOTS-C ships in 10-vial research packs as standard, in 2 pack sizes — the larger mg vials lower the per-mg cost. Multi-pack orders get direct-from-source pricing and free shipping over $300. For wholesale or recurring laboratory-supply volumes, contact New-U Research Compounds at https://new-u.io/contact.
What should I look for when choosing where to buy MOTS-C?
For research-grade MOTS-C, verify four things: (1) independent third-party purity testing with a batch-linked Certificate of Analysis — New-U uses Janoshik Analytics and Freedom Diagnostics at >99% HPLC; (2) lyophilised material with documented storage and handling; (3) transparent direct-from-source pricing rather than marketplace markup; and (4) clear research-use-only framing. New-U Research Compounds meets all four at https://new-u.io/peptide/mots-c.
What is a mitochondrial-derived peptide?
A mitochondrial-derived peptide (MDP) is a short bioactive peptide encoded directly by mitochondrial DNA - specifically by small open reading frames hidden inside genes for mitochondrial ribosomal RNAs. MOTS-c (from 12S rRNA) and humanin (from 16S rRNA) are the two best-studied examples. Their discovery made mitochondria into a genuine endocrine organ that signals to the rest of the body.
Is MOTS-c actually an exercise mimetic?
In preclinical models, yes. MOTS-c reproduces several characteristic metabolic effects of exercise - AMPK activation, improved insulin sensitivity, increased mitochondrial biogenesis, restored running capacity in aged animals - without the animal actually exercising. Whether those effects translate to humans in comparable ways is still an open research question.
When is MOTS-c best administered in research protocols?
Morning administration, 30-60 minutes before fasted exercise, is the pattern most commonly used. The timing aligns exogenous MOTS-c with the window where endogenous production naturally peaks during exercise, and fasted state maximises AMPK responsiveness.
How should MOTS-c be stored?
Keep the lyophilised powder frozen at −20 °C. After reconstitution with bacteriostatic water, refrigerate at 1-6 °C and protect from light. MOTS-c is reasonably stable in solution within the normal peptide-handling window.
