Humanin, the first MDP to be discovered, functions as a cytoprotective factor, protecting cells from stress-induced apoptosis. Subsequent discoveries expanded this family to include Mitochondrial Open-reading-frame of the Twelve S rRNA-c (MOTS-c), a key regulator of metabolic homeostasis and stress adaptation, and the Small Humanin-Like Peptides (SHLP1–6), which modulate mitochondrial bioenergetics and insulin sensitivity. MDPs play critical roles in liver homeostasis by maintaining mitochondrial function and metabolic balance. Intracellularly, they modulate mitochondrial activity, oxidative stress, and apoptosis, promoting hepatocyte survival. Extracellularly, they act in autocrine, paracrine, or endocrine manners, engaging receptors or signaling pathways to regulate nuclear gene expression and metabolic adaptation. Emerging evidence highlights their relevance in metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) . Humanin exerts hepatoprotective effects by inhibiting apoptosis and modulating lipid metabolism. MOTS-c activates AMPK, regulates nuclear gene expression, suppresses fibrotic and inflammatory signaling, and  \nAbbreviations: 5-MTHF, 5-methyl-tetrahydrofolate; AAV, adeno-associated virus; AD, Alzheimer’s disease; AICAR, 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide; AKT, protein kinase B; ALD, alcohol-associated liver disease; AMD, age-related macular degeneration; AMPK, AMP-activated protein kinase; ARE, antioxidant response element; ATF1, activating transcription factor 1; BAX, BCL2-associated X protein; BCL2, B-cell lymphoma 2; CMA, chaperone-mediated autophagy; CNS, Central Nervous System; CNTFRα , ciliary neurotrophic factor receptor alpha; CXCR7, chemokine receptor 7; DNPB, de novo purine biosynthesis; ERK1/2, extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2; ETC, electron transport chain; FAS, fatty acid synthase; FITC, fluorescein isothiocyanate; FPRL1, formyl peptide receptor–like 1; gp130, glycoprotein 130; HNG, S14G-humanin analogue; HSC, hepatic stellate cell; HSP, heavy strand promoter; HSP90, Heat Shock Protein 90; ICV, intracerebroventricular; IP, intraperitoneal; JAK2, Janus kinase 2; LKB1, liver kinase B1; LSP, light strand promoter; MAFLD, metabolic dysfunction–associated fatty liver disease; MAPK, mitogen-activated protein kinase; MASH, metabolic dysfunction–associated steatohepatitis; MASLD, metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease; MDP, mitochondria-derived peptide; MOMP, mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilizat","cbCain7s8qL3OqB3","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCain7s8qL3OqB3","pdf",820162,16,"English","# Abstract\n## Mitochondria-derived peptides and key family members\n## Intracellular and extracellular mechanisms\n## Relevance to MASLD and therapeutic targets","[{\"question\":\"What are mitochondria-derived peptides (MDPs) and where are they encoded?\",\"answer\":\"MDPs are bioactive molecules encoded by small open reading frames within mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA).\"},{\"question\":\"How do MDPs influence liver homeostasis?\",\"answer\":\"MDPs maintain mitochondrial function and metabolic balance.
