Description

At GLP1 Peptides, we provide the scientific community with professional-grade tools for advanced research. Melanotan 1 (MT-1), also known as Afamelanotide, is a non-selective agonist of the melanocortin receptors (MC1R, MC3R, MC4R, and MC5R).

Unlike its derivative MT-2, MT-1 is primarily investigated for its linear relationship with melanin production without the broader systemic effects on other metabolic pathways. Researchers utilize MT-1 to investigate:

• Melanogenesis Induction: Studying the biochemical pathways that trigger the production of eumelanin in skin cells.

• Photoprotective Mechanisms: Researching the potential for peptides to provide cellular-level defense against ultraviolet (UV) radiation.

• MC1R Signaling: Investigating the activation of specific melanocortin receptors and their role in skin pigmentation and DNA repair.
