Description
Melanotan I (afamelanotide) is a synthetic linear peptide analogue of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH). It is a full-length 13-amino-acid peptide melanocortin receptor agonist with selectivity for the MC1 receptor, studied for its interactions with melanocortin signalling pathways in dermatological research models.
Research Context
Preclinical research has examined Melanotan I's binding kinetics at melanocortin-1 receptors (MC1R) and its downstream effects on melanogenesis-related gene expression in melanocyte cell culture models. Supplied exclusively for in vitro laboratory research purposes.
