Background and Aims: A novel bioactive peptide, mitochondrial-derived peptide (MOTS-c), has recently attracted interests as a potential prevention or therapeutic option for obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus in mice. MOTS-c profiles have not yet been reported in type 1 diabetes (T1DM). We aimed to determine circulating MOTS-c levels in T1DM and explore the association between MOTS-c levels and various metabolic parameters.Metho...

Background and aims: A novel bioactive peptide, mitochondrial-derived peptide (MOTS-c), has recently attracted attention as a potential prevention or therapeutic option for obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). MOTS-c profiles have not yet been reported in human obesity and T2DM. We aimed to determine circulating MOTS-c levels in obesity and explore the association between MOTS-c levels and various metabolic parameters. Methods: In this case-control study, 40 obese chil...
