3rd-party lab tested — CoA on every batch
48hr dispatch · Discreet packaging
The 40mg format of True North Peptides' MOTS-C — the mitochondria-encoded peptide for AMPK activation, insulin sensitivity, and longevity research. Four times the quantity of the 10mg vial, same ≥99% purity. Built for longitudinal protocols, dose-response studies, or multi-cohort research designs. For research use only.
MOTS-C 40mg — For Serious Research Programs
Everything from the 10mg vial, four times over. Same MOTS-C, same ≥99% purity standard, same mitochondria-encoded peptide that's positioned at the cutting edge of longevity and metabolic research. The 40mg format is for researchers who need extended timelines, consistent batch-matched material, or are running dose-response investigations across multiple cohorts.
Why MOTS-C Is Different
Almost every peptide in the body is encoded by nuclear DNA. MOTS-C is encoded by mitochondrial DNA — the separate genome your mitochondria carry from ancient bacterial ancestors. This gives it a fundamentally different origin and mechanism: it's a signal from your mitochondria to your nucleus, activated under metabolic stress, that turns on AMPK and shifts your cells into a high-efficiency energy mode.
AMPK Activation, Exercise Adaptation, and Longevity
MOTS-C activates AMPK via folate cycle inhibition — a mechanism that distinguishes it from direct AMPK activators. It rises in circulation in response to exercise. It declines with age. And animal studies examining MOTS-C repletion show effects on age-related metabolic decline and lifespan. For researchers working at the intersection of mitochondrial biology, metabolic health, and longevity science, this is a primary research tool.
