Product Description
Melanotan I (also known as Afamelanotide or NDP-MSH) is a synthetic analogue of alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH) designed to be more stable and potent than the endogenous peptide. It is widely studied for its ability to stimulate melanogenesis, increase skin pigmentation, and provide photoprotection in preclinical models.
Researchers use Melanotan I to explore melanocortin receptor biology, UV protection mechanisms, DNA damage repair pathways, and inflammatory modulation. Its high receptor selectivity and prolonged half-life make it an excellent tool for dermatology and photobiology research.
