LAT1-mediated delivery of engineered R13A-MOTS-c attenuates radiation-induced lung injury via Nrf2 activation and mitochondrial protection

MOTS-c exhibits substantial antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, yet its therapeutic potential is constrained by poor membrane permeability due to its high polarity.

animal · 2026

MOTS-c attenuates hyperoxia-induced neonatal cardiac injury by inhibiting oxeiptosis via maintaining the KEAP1-PGAM5 interaction

Aims Hyperoxia-induced oxidative stress is a primary cause of neonatal injury. Neonatal heart shows a particular susceptibility to hyperoxic toxicity, yet mechanisms and effective therapeutic strategies remain limited. Oxeiptosis is a ROS-specific programmed cell death.

MOTS-c, a mitochondrial-derived peptide, ameliorates lysosomal membrane permeability and improves survival of soft tissue transplantation

Distal ischemic necrosis remains a major challenge in reconstructive surgery. Mitochondria and lysosomes interact via signaling and membrane contacts to maintain cellular homeostasis.

Study · 2026

Humanin and MOTS-c Attenuate Atrial Fibrillation by Suppressing Fibrosis and Mitochondrial Dysfunction

Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a common clinical arrhythmia associated with mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress, and atrial fibrosis. Mitochondrial-derived peptides (MDPs), including humanin (HN) and MOTS-c, exhibit cytoprotective properties, but their role in AF remains largely unknown.

Study · 2026

MOTS-c is associated with oxidative stress and arterial stiffness in peritoneal dialysis patients: a pilot study

Purpose Oxidative stress (OS) and endothelial dysfunction are major drivers of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in peritoneal dialysis (PD).

Study · 2026

Elevated Serum Nardilysin Is Inversely Associated with Cardiovascular Disease in Kidney Transplant Recipients

Background Kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) suffer from enhanced cardiovascular (CV) and metabolic burden due to interplay between pro-inflammatory and metabolic risk factors.
