Research Peptide Comparison
MOTS-c is a mitochondrial-derived peptide that activates AMPK and modulates metabolic gene expression, while TB-500 is a synthetic Thymosin Beta-4 analogue studied for its role in actin sequestration, cell migration, and angiogenic signalling in tissue repair models. The two peptides represent fundamentally different research paradigms: MOTS-c studies centre on intracellular energy regulation and mitochondrial communication, while TB-500 research focuses on extracellular matrix interactions and motogenic cellular processes.
MOTS-c is a mitochondrially-encoded 16-amino-acid peptide that translocates to the nucleus under metabolic stress and engages the AMPK pathway to coordinate cytoprotective and substrate-utilisation responses. It is a primary subject of mitokine research and of investigations into how mitochondrial-derived signals shape aging, insulin sensitivity, and exercise adaptation.
Compared to TB-500 5mg, MOTS-c 40mg is priced at £65.00 with 99%+ verified purity. Its CAS registry number is 1627580-64-6. It has a molecular weight of 2174.68 g/mol.
MOTS-c 40mg is available in 10mg, 40mg and ships with a full Certificate of Analysis from Janoshik Analytical. It is priced £46.01 higher than TB-500 5mg.
TB-500 is a synthetic fragment of Thymosin Beta-4, a naturally occurring actin-sequestering peptide implicated in cellular migration, cytoskeletal remodelling and tissue regeneration. Research interest focuses on its capacity to upregulate actin polymerisation, modulate inflammatory cytokine profiles and influence anti-fibrotic signalling in cardiac, dermal and musculoskeletal models.
Compared to MOTS-c 40mg, TB-500 5mg is priced at £18.99 with 99%+ verified purity. Its CAS registry number is 77591-33-4. It has a molecular weight of 4963.50 g/mol.
TB-500 5mg is available in single size and ships with a full Certificate of Analysis from Janoshik Analytical. At £46.01 less than MOTS-c 40mg, it is the more affordable option in this comparison.
