Melanotan-1

Melanotan-1 (Afamelanotide) is a research peptide studied for its interaction with melanocortin-1 receptor (MC1R) pathways involved in melanogenesis and photoprotection signaling. These pathways play a role in cellular signaling, receptor modulation, and downstream biological responses. In research models, Melanotan-1 (Afamelanotide) has been associated with changes in melanin synthesis markers and MC1R activity, making it a compound of interest in pigmentation and dermatological biology studies.
