Melanotan-1 (Afamelanotide) is a synthetic α-MSH analog supplied as a lyophilized research peptide. Prepared for laboratory investigation.
Research applications include MC1R signaling, melanogenesis studies, and photoprotective-pathway modeling.
Research Use Only. This product is intended exclusively for laboratory research and is not approved for human or veterinary use.
Melanotan I: investigational profile.
Research Mechanism
A synthetic α-MSH analog investigated for MC1R-selective engagement, melanogenesis, and photoprotective-pathway markers in melanocyte models.
Investigational Profile
Developed within the University of Arizona melanocortin program in the 1980s, with a continuous pigmentation and photoprotection literature since.
Research Study Window
Melanogenesis endpoints require multi-week observation, most often four to twelve weeks so pigment turnover has time to register at the tissue level.
