Melanotan I 10mg

Performance Profile

• MC1R-Selective Agonism: A linear alpha-MSH analogue that selectively activates MC1R — the receptor specifically responsible for melanin production — with a more targeted receptor profile than Melanotan II.
• Pigmentation Pathway Research: Studied for eumelanin synthesis pathway activity in isolated melanocortin agonism models — without the broader receptor engagement of Melanotan II.
• UV Defence Research: Investigated for effects on eumelanin density and UV radiation absorption in skin tissue models.

Quick Summary

• Best For: Focused MC1R binding research and isolated pigmentation pathway studies.
• Use Case: MC1R agonism without broader central receptor activity — a cleaner model for focused pigmentation pathway research.
• Research Advantage: More targeted receptor profile than Melanotan II — preferred for research specifically focused on the MC1R receptor.
