ABOUT MITROCON

The mitochondrial peptide MOTS-c

MOTS-c (mitochondrial open reading frame of the 12S rRNA type-c) is a 16-amino-acid peptide encoded not in the nucleus but within the mitochondrial genome itself — one of the small family of mitochondrial-derived peptides discovered over the past two decades. It acts as a signalling molecule linking mitochondrial status to cellular metabolism.

Research has focused on its activation of AMPK, its role in glucose and fatty-acid metabolism, and its translocation to the nucleus under metabolic stress, where it regulates nuclear gene expression. Mitrocon™ supplies MOTS-c as a defined, batch-documented reference material with identity and purity verified on every lot.

RESEARCH BACKGROUND

A peptide at the frontier of metabolic research

The landmark 2015 study in Cell Metabolism identified MOTS-c as a mitochondrial-encoded regulator of insulin sensitivity and metabolic homeostasis. Acting through the folate cycle and AMPK activation, MOTS-c treatment improved glucose tolerance and prevented diet-induced obesity and insulin resistance in mouse models.

Subsequent work has examined MOTS-c as an exercise-mimetic — its plasma levels rise with physical exercise — and in ageing, since its levels decline with age. It has become one of the most studied mitochondrial-derived peptides in the metabolism literature.

OUR TECHNOLOGY

Pressurized Dark-Room Fragmented Lyophilization

Mitrocon™ is lyophilised using CoreyPauling's proprietary Pressurized Dark-Room Fragmented Lyophilization process, which protects the peptide from light and oxidative stress during freeze-drying — critical for a short mitochondrial peptide whose value lies in its intact sequence. The result is stability that conventional lyophilisates cannot match.

90+ days

Near-stable at room temperature

The lyophilised powder remains almost fully stable for over 90 days at room temperature — forgiving of transit delays and customs holds without loss of integrity.

3 years

Stable in cold storage

Stored cold at 2–8°C, Mitrocon™ retains full stability for the shelf life stated on every label, from the date of manufacture.

Mitrocon™ is analytical grade only. CoreyPauling does not encourage or support its use in humans or veterinary applications.

QUALITY & MANUFACTURING

Every batch documented

STD

International standards

Manufactured under internationally recognised quality standards with controlled environments and validated processes at every production step.

HPLC

Analytical verification

Identity, purity and content are verified by HPLC and complementary analytical methods before any batch is released.

LOT

Full traceability

Lot, manufacturing and expiry data are printed on every sachet and vial, tied to batch records and the Certificate of Analysis.

STORAGE & HANDLING

Cold chain, door to door

Store cold at 2–8°C

Keep refrigerated for full shelf life. Do not freeze. Protect vials from light and keep them in the original sachet until use; brief room-temperature excursions are tolerated thanks to our lyophilization process.

Insulated export shipping

Wholesale consignments ship in insulated packaging with cooling elements and temperature indicators, with export documentation prepared per destination.
