- Product Overview:
MOTS-c is a mitochondrial peptide with diverse biological activities.{46730,28592,46731} It increases osteogenic differentiation and the formation of calcified nodules in rat bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) when used at a concentration of 1 µM.{46730} MOTS-c decreases 5-methyl-tetrahydrofolate levels, blocking de novo purine biosynthesis, increases accumulation of 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide (AICAR; Item No. 10010241), and activates AMPK in HEK293 cells.{28592} It increases glycolysis in HEK293 cells in an AMPK-dependent manner. In vivo, MOTS-c (0.5 mg/kg per day, i.p.) increases glucose clearance in mice fed a normal diet. It increases skeletal muscle AMPK activation and GLUT4 expression, as well as prevents high-fat diet-induced obesity and hyperinsulinemia in CD-1 mice. MOTS-c (5 mg/kg) increases AMPK activation, reduces protein levels of the angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) and endothelin B (ETB) receptors and left ventricular posterior wall thickness, and attenuates aortic calcification in a rat model of secondary myocardial remodeling.{46731}
Cayman Chemical’s mission is to help make research possible by supplying scientists worldwide with the basic research tools necessary for advancing human and animal health. Our utmost commitment to healthcare researchers is to offer the highest quality products with an affordable pricing policy.
Our scientists are experts in the synthesis, purification, and characterization of biochemicals ranging from small drug-like heterocycles to complex biolipids, fatty acids, and many others. We are also highly skilled in all aspects of assay and antibody development, protein expression, crystallization, and structure determination.
Over the past thirty years, Cayman developed a deep knowledge base in lipid biochemistry, including research involving the arachidonic acid cascade, inositol phosphates, and cannabinoids. This knowledge enabled the production of reagents of exceptional quality for cancer, oxidative injury, epigenetics, neuroscience, inflammation, metabolism, and many additional lines of research.
Our organic and analytical chemists specialize in the rapid development of manufacturing processes and analytical methods to carry out clinical and commercial GMP-API production. Pre-clinical drug discovery efforts are currently underway in the areas of bone restoration and repair, muscular dystrophy, oncology, and inflammation. A separate group of Ph.D.-level scientists are dedicated to offering Hit-to-Lead Discovery and Profiling Services for epigenetic targets. Our knowledgeable chemists can be contracted to perform complete sample analysis for analytes measured by the majority of our assays. We also offer a wide range of analytical services using LC-MS/MS, HPLC, GC, and many other techniques.
