BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound-157) is a synthetic pentadecapeptide consisting of 15 amino acids, derived from a protein naturally found in human gastric juice. It is widely studied in preclinical research for its role in tissue repair, angiogenesis, and cytoprotective signalling.

How do I reconstitute BPC-157?

Reconstitute with 1-2 ml of bacteriostatic water. Allow the vial to reach room temperature, inject solvent gently down the inside wall, and swirl gently. Never shake. Store reconstituted solution at 2-8°C and use within 4-6 weeks.

What purity is BioLab's BPC-157?

Every batch is independently tested via HPLC and mass spectrometry to confirm 99%+ purity and correct molecular identity. A batch-specific Certificate of Analysis is available with every order.

How should I store BPC-157?

Store lyophilised vials at -20°C, protected from light and moisture. Once reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, store at 2-8°C and use within 4-6 weeks. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

MOTS-c 10 mg – Mitochondrial-Derived Metabolic Peptide

MOTS-c is a 16-amino-acid peptide encoded within the mitochondrial genome (12S rRNA gene), discovered by Dr. Changhan David Lee at the University of Southern California in 2015. It is one of the first identified mitochondrial-derived peptides (MDPs) and represents a paradigm shift in understanding how mitochondria communicate with the nucleus and regulate systemic metabolism.

Research Background

AMPK activation – MOTS-c activates AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), a master regulator of cellular energy balance. AMPK activation promotes glucose uptake, fatty acid oxidation, and mitochondrial biogenesis, positioning MOTS-c as a key research tool for metabolic pathway studies.

Exercise mimetic – MOTS-c levels increase during exercise in humans. Research suggests it may partially mediate the metabolic benefits of physical activity, making it a subject of interest in exercise biology and sedentary-lifestyle metabolic research.

Insulin sensitivity – Preclinical studies report improved insulin sensitivity and glucose homeostasis in models treated with MOTS-c, linking mitochondrial signalling to systemic metabolic regulation.

Ageing biology – MOTS-c levels decline with age. This decline parallels the deterioration of metabolic function, suggesting a role in age-related metabolic dysregulation and making it relevant to longevity research alongside Epithalon and SS-31.
