Ipamorelin and MOTS-c Interaction

Synergistic
Mechanism-based 51% confidence

Ipamorelin and MOTS-c have a synergistic interaction with 51% confidence. Ipamorelin helps counteract the insulin-disrupting effects of MOTS-c. A smart combination — the insulin sensitizer mitigates metabolic side effects. These compounds primarily affect different organ systems.

Compound Profiles

Ipamorelin

Growth Hormone Secretagogue | Selective GHRP

Binds selectively to ghrelin receptors in pituitary gland, stimulating natural GH release with direct systemic delivery via injection, consistent GH pulse stimulation, no significant cortisol or prolactin elevation, and minimal hunger response..

Half-life: ~2 hours Typical dose: 200-300 mcg per injection growth hormone, weight loss, sleep

MOTS-c

Mitochondrial-Derived Peptide | Metabolic Regulator

Inhibits the folate cycle leading to AMPK activation. Under metabolic stress, translocates to nucleus to bind stress-response transcription factors, regulating genes involved in metabolism, insulin sensitivity, and cellular adaptation.

Half-life: ~30 minutes Typical dose: Start 5mg daily, increase to 10-15mg based on goals longevity, metabolic
