Tetrapeptide

Catalog No.: A38734
Melanin Synthesis Inducer
Tetrapeptide, a peptide analogue of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone (α-MSH), functions as a melanin synthesis inducer. This compound not only promotes melanin production but also mitigates DNA damage by decreasing the formation of reactive oxidative species and enhancing the repair mechanisms for DNA photoproducts. It is valuable in research applications focused on skin pigmentation and photoprotection.
