MOTS-c Research for Exercise Mimetic
An evidence-based overview of research examining MOTS-c in the context of exercise mimetic. This page synthesizes findings from peer-reviewed literature.
Research Summary
Exercise-associated endogenous MOTS-c was measured in people and mouse treatment experiments tested physical performance. A 2026 study found no exercise-related arterio-venous MOTS-c difference despite a muscle interstitial signal. Substituting MOTS-c for exercise in people is untested.
