Melanotan I | 10mg
$24.99
Melanotan I (Afamelanotide) is a synthetic peptide designed for advanced scientific research on melanogenesis, skin pigmentation, and photoprotection mechanisms. This vial contains high-purity Melanotan I, intended strictly for laboratory and research use.
Melanotan I (Afamelanotide) is a synthetic research peptide designed to help scientists study melanogenesis, skin pigmentation, and photoprotection mechanisms. What makes it unique is its structure as an analog of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH), which binds to melanocortin receptors and stimulates melanin production in melanocytes. This allows researchers to study how the body naturally protects skin from UV radiation.
Because of this melanogenic activity, Melanotan I has become an important tool in research exploring:
-
Skin pigmentation – how melanocytes produce and distribute melanin in response to hormonal signals.
-
UV photoprotection – how increased melanin levels protect skin cells from radiation damage.
-
Melanocortin receptor biology – how MC1R and related receptors regulate pigmentation pathways.
Each vial contains high-purity Melanotan I, formulated for consistency and reliability in laboratory settings. Researchers can use it to study complex biological processes that may eventually lead to a deeper understanding of skin disorders, photoprotection, melanoma prevention, and dermatological conditions.
This product is intended strictly for laboratory and scientific research only—not for human consumption or therapeutic use.
