Frequently asked questions

Research Overview

Melanotan 1 (Afamelanotide, [Nle4, D-Phe7]-α-MSH) is a linear tridecapeptide analog of alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone with high selectivity for the melanocortin-1 receptor (MC1R). It is studied in experimental models for melanogenesis, UV-induced DNA damage response and MC1R pharmacology.

Primary Research Areas

  • Melanogenesis & pigmentation: models studying eumelanin synthesis, MC1R signaling and skin pigmentation pathways.
  • Photoprotection research: experimental systems exploring UV-protective mechanisms and DNA damage prevention.
  • MC1R receptor pharmacology: studies on receptor binding selectivity and cAMP downstream signaling.
  • Erythropoietic protoporphyria models: preclinical research into light-tolerance and phototoxicity endpoints.

For Research Use Only

This product is intended solely for in-vitro research and laboratory use. Not intended for human consumption, diagnostic or therapeutic purposes.

Safety & Handling

Handle with appropriate protective equipment (gloves, lab coat, eye protection). Store according to product specifications. Consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for full safety instructions.
