Product information
Research classification: mitochondrial-derived peptide. A 2022 review describes stress-dependent nuclear translocation and regulation of genes related to metabolic homeostasis. The field remains comparatively young, and many proposed roles come from cell and animal experiments rather than established human pharmacology.
