Melanostatin, frog

Catalog No.: A61684
α-MSH Inhibitor
Melanostatin, frog is a potent inhibitor of α-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH) release, exhibiting an IC50 value of 60 nM. This peptide is primarily utilized in studies investigating melanogenesis and the regulation of pigment production. Its effects on α-MSH make it a valuable tool for research applications focusing on skin biology, obesity, and related metabolic pathways.
