BodyPharm MOTS-C 10mg – Premium Mitochondrial-Derived Peptide for Metabolic & Cellular Energy Research
Explore advanced metabolic science with the BodyPharm MOTS-C 10mg Vial, a premium research-grade peptide supplied in a lyophilized (freeze-dried) format together with a vial of bacteriostatic water. This formulation is designed for maximum stability during storage while allowing controlled preparation only when needed, preserving peptide integrity and consistency.
MOTS-C (Mitochondrial Open Reading Frame of the 12S rRNA-C) is a mitochondrial-derived peptide involved in regulating cellular energy balance, metabolic adaptation, and stress-response signalling. Unlike many nuclear-encoded peptides, MOTS-C originates from mitochondrial DNA, making it a unique focus in modern research exploring how mitochondria communicate with the rest of the cell.
Researchers continue to investigate MOTS-C for its role in energy metabolism, glucose regulation pathways, insulin sensitivity signalling, and cellular resilience under metabolic stress. Its connection to mitochondrial function places it at the centre of emerging research into metabolic health, longevity, and performance physiology.
Why Researchers Study MOTS-C
MOTS-C is widely studied because it represents one of the few known mitochondrial-derived peptides involved in systemic metabolic regulation.
Mitochondrial Energy Signalling
MOTS-C is primarily investigated for its role in mitochondrial-to-nuclear communication, a process that helps regulate how cells respond to energy demands. Researchers explore how MOTS-C may influence ATP production efficiency, metabolic flexibility, and cellular energy homeostasis.
Metabolic Flexibility & Glucose Regulation
One of the key areas of interest is MOTS-C’s potential involvement in glucose metabolism and insulin signalling pathways. Research continues to examine how it may contribute to:
- Improved glucose utilisation
- Enhanced insulin sensitivity signalling
- Metabolic adaptation during energy stress
- Regulation of carbohydrate and lipid metabolism
These pathways are central to metabolic health and energy balance research.
Fat Oxidation & Energy Utilisation
MOTS-C is also studied for its potential influence on fat metabolism and substrate switching, where the body shifts between glucose and fat as energy sources. Researchers investigate how this may impact:
- Lipid oxidation efficiency
- Energy expenditure regulation
- Metabolic adaptation during fasting or exercise conditions
- Overall body composition dynamics
Cellular Stress Response & Resilience
Mitochondria play a central role in how cells respond to stress. MOTS-C is studied for its potential role in helping cells adapt to metabolic and oxidative stress conditions, contributing to broader research in cellular resilience and survival mechanisms.
Exercise Physiology & Performance Adaptation
Another major area of research interest involves MOTS-C’s potential connection to exercise-induced metabolic changes. Scientists continue to explore how it may influence:
- Endurance adaptation
- Muscle metabolic efficiency
- Recovery from physical stress
- Energy utilisation during activity
💧 Reconstitution & Preparation Guide (Simple Step-by-Step)
Each BodyPharm peptide vial comes with:
- 1 vial of lyophilized (freeze-dried) peptide powder
- 1 vial of bacteriostatic water
This two-component system is designed so the product remains stable in dry form until it is ready to be prepared for use.
Below is a general step-by-step guide on how the preparation process is typically done.
🧴 Step 1: Wash Your Hands & Prepare a Clean Area
Before handling the vials, ensure your hands are clean and you are working on a clean surface. This helps reduce the risk of contamination during preparation.
🧴 Step 2: Check Both Vials
Inspect both components before use:
- The peptide vial should contain a dry, white or off-white powder
- The bacteriostatic water should be clear and free from particles
Do not use the product if either vial appears compromised.
🧴 Step 3: Draw Up the Bacteriostatic Water
Using a sterile syringe (as typically provided or recommended), draw up the required amount of bacteriostatic water from its vial.
This liquid will be used to reconstitute the peptide powder.
🧴 Step 4: Add Water Slowly Into the Peptide Vial
Slowly inject the bacteriostatic water into the vial containing the peptide powder.
Allow the liquid to run gently down the inside wall of the vial rather than directly onto the powder to help it dissolve evenly.
🧴 Step 5: Gently Swirl (Do Not Shake)
Gently swirl the vial until the powder is fully dissolved.
- Do not shake the vial
- The solution should become clear and uniform once fully mixed
🧴 Step 6: Allow to Stabilise
Let the vial sit for a few minutes so any air bubbles can settle and the solution can fully stabilise.
🧴 Step 7: Refrigerate After Preparation
Once prepared, store the vial in a refrigerator and keep protected from direct light.
🧬 Why This Two-Vial System Is Used
The dual-vial format is designed to maintain stability and flexibility:
- The lyophilized powder remains stable during long-term storage
- The bacteriostatic water is only added when preparation is required
- This helps preserve product integrity until use
- It allows flexible preparation based on individual requirements

Frequently Asked Questions
What is MOTS-C?
MOTS-C is a mitochondrial-derived peptide involved in regulating cellular energy balance, metabolic adaptation, and glucose utilisation pathways.
Why is MOTS-C important in research?
It is one of the few peptides encoded by mitochondrial DNA, making it a unique focus in studies of metabolic regulation and mitochondrial signalling.
What does reconstitution mean?
Reconstitution is the process of adding bacteriostatic water to the lyophilized powder to convert it into a liquid form suitable for use.
Why are two vials included?
