Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a condition characterized by structural and physiological disruptions in brain function caused by external forces. However, as the highly complex and heterogenous nature of TBI, effective treatments are currently lacking. Mitochondrial open reading frame of the 12S rRNA-c (MOTS-c) has shown notable antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory effects, yet its detailed neuroprotective effects and mode of action remain incompletely understood. This study investigated the neuroprotective effects and the underlying mechanisms of MOTS-c.
