Melanotan I acetate

Catalog No.: A61685
MCR Agonist
Melanotan I acetate is a potent non-selective agonist of melanocortin receptors (MCR). As a synthetic analogue of alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH), it promotes melanogenesis and induces skin tanning by activating melanocortin type 1 receptors (MC1R) in melanocytes. This compound is valuable for research into the mechanisms of sunlight-induced skin cancers and related photobiological studies.
