A 2026 review of BPC-157 found three human studies and 30 people, none with a control group. The authors called the certainty very low, and they said it shouldn’t be used clinically outside a proper trial.

Wait — this one is written in mitochondrial DNA.
MOTS-c is a short peptide whose gene sits in the mitochondria, not the usual chromosomes in the nucleus. Researchers treat it as a metabolic signal. The human story is still early.
A mitochondrial gene product is not automatically a longevity drug.
