MOTS-c
Summary
Bronchogen is a tetrapeptide bioregulator (Ala-Glu-Asp-Leu) developed by Professor Vladimir Khavinson at the St. Petersburg Institute of Bioregulation and Gerontology. It is a tissue-specific bioregulator designed for the bronchi and lungs, promoting normalization of bronchial epithelial cell function. Research suggests benefits for respiratory health, protection against pulmonary aging, and support for bronchopulmonary conditions.
MOTS-c is a mitochondria-derived peptide (MDP) encoded within the mitochondrial genome. It acts as a metabolic regulator, improving insulin sensitivity, enhancing exercise capacity, and counteracting age-related metabolic decline. It is often called a 'mitochondrial hormone.'
