Undecylenoyl phenylalanine
Catalog No. A58225

Undecylenoyl phenylalanine is a competitive antagonist of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (MSH) and β-adrenergic receptors (β-ADR), effectively inhibiting melanogenesis in melanocytes. This compound demonstrates significant potential as a skin lightening agent by reducing hyperpigmentation, thereby improving conditions such as melasma lesions and solar lentigines. Its mechanism of action makes it valuable for research in dermatological applications targeting skin pigmentation disorders.
