MOTS‐c is a peptide of 16 amino acids expressed by a mitochondrial gene. Research provides evidence that mitochondria play a key role in signaling and in energy production.
MOTS-c regulates metabolic functions throughout the body, including turning glucose into usable energy. Preliminary studies show evidence for improved control over blood sugar levels for those with type 2 diabetes and obesity.
Research also shows that skeletal muscle is the major target tissue of MOTS‐c. The skeletal muscle enhances sensitivity and increases glucose uptake in myocytes (muscle cells) by activating the pathway and at the same time without increasing . It is fair to call MOTS‐c an exercise‐mimetic, meaning it imitates exercise on the body. Exercise also increases muscle glucose uptake without stimulating .
(AMP‐activated protein kinase), was identified in 1999 as the master switch for metabolism and the central regulator of both glucose and lipid (fat) metabolism. Since then it has been a target for therapeutic intervention against metabolic conditions such as type‐2 diabetes.
Metabolic flexibility is when our metabolism can efficiently switch and change when metabolic demand or supply is needed. These types of changes have trained our body to manage energy metabolism for optimal substrate (glucose, fatty acids, amino acids) storage and use during states of either food excess or deficiency, and periods of either rest or increased energy demand.
The human body knows how to use moderate amounts of carbohydrates, amino acids and fatty acids. Our western diet, however, is characterized by excess food supply. Metabolic dysfunction or metabolic inflexibility is caused by continuous intake of excess calories, processed foods, and physical inactivity.
In various models of obesity and diabetes we know that some metabolic pathways are dysfunctional. It is caused by competition between sugars, fats and proteins and what we call the 3 prongs of metabolic insensitivity.
Excess calories can overwhelm the mitochondria and cause mitochondrial dysfunction.
This has many detrimental effects on metabolism and is strongly associated with weight gain in both humans and animal models.
A functional metabolism needs proper glucose and regulation, proper energy consumption and usage, and optimal mitochondria functioning. Other factors can contribute as well but the more we learn the more we are understanding that the mitochondria may actively regulate metabolic homeostasis at the cellular level. Could we then propose this equation, fix the mitochondria = fix the metabolism?
We know that mitochondria are the main cellular sites devoted to ATP (energy) production and fatty acid oxidation. The Mitochondrial-Derived Peptide MOTS-c promotes metabolic homeostasis and reduces obesity and resistance. Mitochondria also play a crucial role in determining metabolic flexibility.
Osteoporosis is a multi-factor and age-related metabolic disease. Bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) are the progenitor cells of osteoblasts and adipocytes and play an essential role in the process of bone formation.
can stimulate the proliferation, differentiation and mineralization of osteoblasts, which exerts an important role in the cellular functions of osteoblasts. Osteoblasts are cells that make bone. Bone mass is maintained by a balance between the activity of osteoblasts that form bone and other cells called osteoclasts that break it down.
Studies show that BMSC's treated with MOTS-c upregulated expression levels of ALP, Bglap, and Runx2. This resulted in the formation of mineralized nodules, indicating the osteogenic capacity of BMSC's regulated by MOTS-c. In simple nonscientific terms,
MOTS-c promotes cell differentiation of BMSCs to osteoblasts = bone formation.
